Assisting the lady with changing and swimming
Introducing the task to a movement therapist
The lady really enjoys swimming and the individual attention. She currently goes once a month and would like to go more often. She has early-stage dementia and uses a walker. Going down the steps into the pool and swimming are still going well.
