What is Alzheimer's? 0 Alzheimer's is the most common type of dementia

History of Alzheimer's disease 0 Discovered early 1900’s by Alois Alzheimer 0 Observed a patient named Auguste deter 0 Strange grey substance found and later named Alzheimer's disease

Project Facilitator 0 Whitney Green

Product 0 What? 0 I made a scrapbook to preserve memories in a unique and creative way that I can keep forever

1 st step 0 My 1 st step was doing research to conduct my research paper on Alzheimer's disease.

2 nd step 0 My 2 nd step was looking for the right assisted living home to volunteer at that supports Alzheimer's disease.

3 rd step 0 My 3 rd step was meeting with my project facilitator, to see how I can get involved and help out with patients who have Alzheimer's.

4 th step 0 I volunteered at the different events.

BINGO  Provides mental stimulation.  I have seen alertness and awareness in the many times I have volunteered to call bingo

Music

Balloon volleyball

St. Patty's day crafts

Quilting  Sense of creativity  Once they have the quilt made that they spent time on, they have the sense of completion

Challenges 0 Shot 0 Project facilitator 0 Snow storm

What I learned 0 How to be more patient (bingo) 0 Yes I would pursue this topic because Alzheimer's is a growing problem and there are many affected from it.

Conclusion 0 I grew strong connections with some people and I will still be volunteering there

Thank you for your time!
