Non-slip place mat with high contrast icons; blue, red or green.
As the effects of dementia increase, the kitchen becomes an unsuitable environment to participate in and alternative 'normal household chores' are encouraged to maintain self-esteem and satisfaction. One of these tasks is to set the table; the problem here is that people can forget this too.
Simple involvement of activities
Setting the table is one of those low-risk tasks and is accompanied by the stimulation of maternal instinct, which remains very strong in women with dementia. Involvement in 'motherhood' or 'home help' type of tasks is positive, and this place mat enables this simple and valuable activity that promotes self-esteem and satisfaction.
As part of the care process to support the active involvement of women with Alzheimer's, many families encourage female residents to help with household activities, including cooking.
Its purpose is to encourage the continued involvement of people with Alzheimer's disease in setting the table and to provide clues to help memory failure.
This is easily achieved by creating a non-slip mat with high-contrast pictograms where the plates, cups and cutlery should be located, so that you get both a guide on how to properly set the table and also an active and valuable activity for the demented resident.
