About the Client

Clients Name: Michael

Food they like: He has his meals with his carer but otherwise likes tea, juice, biscuits etc.

Music: He likes classical music but is very hard of hearing and hasn't listened to any in recent times.

TV: I don't think he's that interested.

Films: He doesn't watch films.

Books: He is well read and has a good collection of Art books which he enjoys looking at. He was an accomplished painter before the dementia set in.

Days Out: He likes walking in parks and sitting in cafes. He gets tired these days so only walks short distances.

Other Interests: He likes pottering in the garden.


Details:

Michael is 100 yrs old and has dementia. He has a gentle nature but a really poor memory and is easily confused. He has a live-in carer who has a two hour break every afternoon. Although his mobility is good for his age, he is unsteady and we don't leave him alone anymore.
