Abstract
  • The study aimed to develop, implement, and evaluate a group reminiscence therapy program to promote meaningful social participation in a long-term care facility. A doctoral capstone experience student conducted a weekly 45-60 minute group reminiscence therapy program across six sessions. A total of 29 participants attended some or all of the sessions. Pre-test/post-test outcome measures were the Older People’s Quality of Life - Brief version and the Three-Item Loneliness Scale. The student noted observations from the sessions and administered a feedback survey at the last session. The program did not significantly impact the participants’ quality of life or loneliness level. However, participants provided positive feedback on the feedback survey, reporting satisfaction with the activity. The study implies the future continuation of the program may be successful for an enjoyable and meaningful activity but may need to be offered more frequently with smaller groups and assessed with other outcome measures to evaluate for impact on quality of life or loneliness effectively. Thus, occupational therapists can incorporate concepts of reminiscence therapy into practice to promote meaningful social participation with the therapist and promote improved quality of life.
