Independent Memory Activities

Riverhaven Rehab Resident Mr. Frank showing off his LEGO building

Mr. Frank has definitely got a creative hand. Just check out his LEGO building! He says that this is his happy place with all of his friends. J The National Institute on Aging (nia.nih.gov) says that, “meaningful activities like hobbies help the elderly feel happier and healthier. One study on older adults who learned quilting or digital photography had more memory improvement than those who socialized or did less cognitively demanding activities.” We know the importance of keeping ones memory intact and we work daily to keep our community mentally active.
