MAKING MUM A FIDGET BLANKET | Connecting Caregiver Tips

Connecting is a series of tips for caregivers caring for people with dementia.

People with dementia tend to get restless and fidget due to anxiety or boredom. Danny noticed his mother constantly fiddling with her hands, and put together a fidget cushion – to help keep her engaged. For less than $10, Danny shows us how simple, everyday items can make a comforting and stimulating tool for your loved one.
