This book offers a practical group activity plan for caregivers of patients with cognitive impairment. No special qualifications, expensive training, or equipment are needed. By dedicating 45 minutes, twice a week, for seven weeks, caregivers can follow the main principles outlined in the manual. CST is an evidence-based, non-drug treatment supported by research. Patients who engage in these activities report improved quality of life and show progress in memory and other abilities. This manual is not only for group activities but also provides principles for daily care. The Chinese version includes additional principles and adapts game content to resonate with Chinese readers.
