Alzheimers & Dementia DVDs

Our Alzheimer's and Dementia DVDs have been specially created to help meet the recreational, social and spiritual needs of those with lower functional and cognitive ability.

These visually captivating programs blend soothing original music with magnificent sights and sounds from nature. They are filled with birds and animals, ocean waves, peaceful desert sunsets and gently flowing mountain streams - the type of images dementia patients find appealing.

Home caregivers and activity directors in long-term care facilities have found that Cedar Lake DVDs offer an ideal balance between relaxation and stimulation. Because they provide stimulation that is both visual and auditory they have proven to be more effective than music alone in connecting with patients and holding their attention for periods of up to an hour.

The effectiveness of the programs is seen in ways that patients react to them - tapping their feet in time with the music, humming softly, maintaining eye contact with the screen, identifying objects verbally and, above all, smiling.
