This approach is very similar to 'goal directed activities' for intervention with children which I learned eons ago in grad school. With goal directed activities, however, you targeted certain concepts, syntax or skills via bombardment/error free modeling, setting up expectations for responses and/or systematically eliciting the targets.

Love the emphasis on autonomy/independence and some excellent ideas-kept thinking of things that would prevent those ideas from becoming a reality in a facility simply due to cleanliness/sanitation (rolling other residents’ silverware, helping fill condiments/salt pepper, washing dishes, etc)

Learned that tactile is one of the longest preserved skills in dementia, that dementia patients can’t initiate or sustain social interactions and that people more likely to participate if they think they’re doing it for you, not for them.
