13 x 18 x 3 cmUsed by gerontologists specialized in the management of difficult behaviour, the Talking Photo Album is a very powerful tool to reduce and even stop some behaviours like aggressiveness, anxiety and apathy.
The most efficient way to reassure anxious residents is to create a diversion verbally or by using an exterior stimulus. When you offer a resident a Talking Photo Album filled with pictures of his life and voices that are dear to him, this will help him reminisce about happier times in the past when he was in control of his life and surrounded by loved ones.
This superb imitation leather photo album holds 20 standard 5” x 7” photos.
All you have to do is insert photos in the transparent sleeves and record a 10 second message per photo. The recording mechanism is really simple. The quality of the sound is impressive. You can make the recording yourself but if you ask family members to bring photos and comment them while visiting or to prepare the album at home, the results will be even better.
When the resident opens the album and sees the photo, he has to press a button. Sticking a red dot on the button or writing “Push Here” is a good idea. He can then look at the photograph and listen to the message as often as he wishes.
This is an extraordinary gift for any resident living with Alzheimer’s. Talk about it to family members and caregivers!
