Anxiety, Dementia, Depression, Hearing Loss, Isolation

Modifications

Dementia Employ task segmentation. Provide cueing and use the hand-over-hand method as needed. If cutting and using hole punch is too complex, have person color design and/or fan out the strips. Covid-19 For a group activity, use a room large enough to accommodate social distancing. Make sure everyone has their own set of coloring utensils and scissors. Or, have the facilitator do the cutting. For a one-on-one program, bring materials to the room. Sanitize markers and scissors after using.
