Sharing and recollecting memories with seniors in long term care helps them to affirm who they are and to maintain self worth. It is also a stimulating mental activity, promoting good social interaction and strengthening friendships. Residents may benefit from listening to the wonderful and touching stories of their peers. Reminiscing stories may be video recorded with the resident’s permission and as per facility protocols.
