Interesting information and such a proactive treatment for clients at home! Yoga can help to relieve arthritis pain by creating more mobility in the joints and flexibility in the muscles around the joints. While pain should be respected, this article does point out the "use it or lose it" idea. Not to mention the other benefits Yoga would offer, such as deep breathing to reduce stress.

The Amazing Village in The Netherlands Just for People with Dementia - 1 views

I know we are past aging in place by a little bit, but I came across this again and wanted to share! A really interesting outlook on aging in place in a mock village for dementia patients. The patients live on site in their own apartments which they are aided in managing independently. The town has everything from grocery stores to movie theaters. Nursing staff dress in plain clothes to give the environment a "real-life" feel and encourage patients to operate on their own schedule. This is currently in the Netherlands, but how cool would it be to have OT's work in something like this!
