[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] The Sancheong-gun Dementia Safety Center in Gyeongnam announced on the 11th that it will resume operating the Memory Keeper Shelter, which provides cognitive enhancement programs for patients with mild dementia.
The shelter had temporarily suspended operations to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19). It has been resumed to address the care gap for dementia patients in the region and to prevent the worsening of dementia.
The shelter program consists of cognitive stimulation and rehabilitation programs such as horticultural activities, exercise therapy, workbook activities, and art therapy. Emotional support and health support programs to prevent COVID-19 depression are also provided once a month.
