Knížka pro vzpomínání a procvičování paměti – Cingrošová Klára (2014)

The concept presents an interactive book that professionals in healthcare and social facilities, family caregivers, relatives, friends, volunteers, as well as seniors themselves or people with long-term illnesses and disabilities can use. The publication consists of 27 topics related to the calendar year, whose selection was influenced by Czech history and culture. Each topic is filled with prompts and tasks that intertwine working with memories (reminiscence) with memory training. Everything is processed so that the book can be used without preparation. The book is applicable for both individual and group work. Given the possibility of comprehensive and long-term use, the publication can serve as a supportive material for implementing an individual client plan in social services. For individuals, it serves as a personal workbook for reminiscing and practicing memory, for shortening long hours, for improving cognitive abilities, and at the same time for maintaining good orientation in time. In a family environment, the publication provides numerous prompts for enriching shared time and offers inspiration for intergenerational closeness.
