Highlighting research from our previous OT-III graduating class! This study explored how motion-based games and meaningful activities can support engagement and positive emotional behaviors in older adults with mild to moderate dementia. Great work exploring meaningful ways to support participation and connection! #occupationaltherapy #research #meaningfuloccupations by @midwesternuniversityot
