| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz Art as in painting seems to be a bit within dementia care as shown by @N_Wilson94 @AlzToronto #DiverseAlz |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz Question 3: Are we looking at activities that are soothing? What about writing? #DiverseAlz |
| nursesKidONE @nursesKidONE RT @helenfindlay: |
| nursesKidONE @nursesKidONE RT @TommyTommytee18: |
| Alzheimer Society TO @AlzToronto Very true! Activities should be tailored to a person's interests, even within art therapy itself- there is painting, clay, music #diversealz https://t.co/XI6NZUKGM4 |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz RT @N_Wilson94: |
| nursesKidONE @nursesKidONE RT @helenfindlay: |
| nursesKidONE @nursesKidONE RT @TommyTommytee18: |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz @N_Wilson94 Can depend on the approach. Is good form of therapy. One carers and families could embrace. #diversealz |

| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz RT @TommyTommytee18: |
| Alzheimer Society TO @AlzToronto We'd love to hear more about creative writing programs/activities. We haven't done much writing. Story telling is fun, though! #diversealz https://t.co/9PvBQUntOz |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz Songs and poetry part of writing and very effective see @TommyTommytee18 tweets #DiverseAlz |
 | Dr. Janelle Christensen @JanelleAnthro RT @AlzToronto: We'd love to hear more about creative writing programs/activities. We haven't done much writing. Story telling is fun, though! #diversealz https://t.co/9PvBQUntOz |
| nursesKidONE @nursesKidONE RT @MattLariv: |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz We know power of music and the ability to play/sing can be therapeutic. @helenfindlay's mum continued to play piano beautifully #diversealz |

| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz RT @MattLariv: |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz See @MattLariv point...if we weren't framing this topic within dementia we might not be talking about interventions #DiverseAlz |
| nursesKidONE @nursesKidONE For some individuals, style(s) &/or color(s) of dress can be a form of artistic self-expression. #diversealz https://t.co/qYgjdXlCIR |

| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz @nursesKidONE Indeed. Dressing up is art itself. Thinking child's play but why not adults too. Plus, socks don't have to match as they say #diversealz |

| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz RT @helenfindlay: |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz Question 4: could we be moving to a time where we medicalise leisure - a kind of arts on prescription? #diversealz #dementia |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz Suddenly thinking of photography. Here, the power of visuals. Thanks @YODsupporter as remembering photos #DiverseAlz |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz Some arts can rekindle memories. Do you agree? @AlzToronto @nursesKidONE #diversealz |

| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz RT @TommyTommytee18: |
| Chuck @OrangeChuck As a caregiver who had blogged in the past, I started @CuseCheap as a blog to help me have an escape mentally when I have time. #diversealz https://t.co/oN3ycuz5Pt |

| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson I never let go of baseball, no matter what else is happening. It's just for me. #DiverseAlz https://t.co/TAKeaDBMhs |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz Two strands to the conversation today: participation. And policy #diversealz |
| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson I think so, although we have to watch boundaries. People find us and want help/attention. That must be managed. #DiverseAlz https://t.co/nH2pabbrqc |

| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson Fun is good in itself and that's okay. We shouldn't have to earn our fun. #DiverseAlz https://t.co/cviVyJHjUg |
| Chuck @OrangeChuck @DawnMGibson Yes! I thought about a caregiving blog but I wanted something more of an escape for me & doing something I enjoy. #diversealz |
| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson I'm not ready to do much dementia advocacy. I already do work for disability & chronic illness with #SpoonieChat. 1/2 #DiverseAlz https://t.co/vfgSSQm3mH |
| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson I've been doing dementia for a year, that's it. I feel 10 years older and could cry or totally space at any moment. 2/2 #DiverseAlz https://t.co/vfgSSQm3mH |
| Chuck @OrangeChuck @DawnMGibson As basically mom's only caregiver 24/7, I devote a lot of time to her and her care. I can help others but I need me time too. #diversealz |
| Diverse Alzheimers @DiverseAlz What have you taken fro this conversation? #diversealz |
| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson I like this so much! We don't need to force an outcome. Just try to do the bond and even mood. #DiverseAlz https://t.co/92Nifhow18 |

| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson The Dude could benefit from video tours of museums/exhibits & 3-D that he can touch. #DiverseAlz https://t.co/6K9sXFurdw |
| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson RT @AdrianzWall: |
| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson There is no way to just live and do in this world. Sigh. #DiverseAlz https://t.co/cH2qG5ozYt |
| Chuck @OrangeChuck @DawnMGibson Yeah I don't think some realize how much noise or commotion or confrontation can cause agitation in PWD...definitely does w/mom #diversealz |
| Dawn M Gibson @DawnMGibson I didn't know the dangers of noise-outside of ASD-until I saw it for myself. #DiverseAlz https://t.co/cellgLzZtP |
