Alzheimer's and animal therapy

Alzheimer's and animal therapy: theory and practice is a manual designed to guide gerontology professionals who wish to initiate animal therapy, providing them with everything necessary for its implementation.

The manual offers an innovative classroom program, consisting of 120 neuropsychological slides and 22 group workshops, designed with canine themes to promote, complement, and enrich interventions.

It will facilitate the execution of this type of dynamic with older adults suffering from cognitive impairment or dementia, always approached from a multidimensional perspective encompassing three spheres: functional, cognitive, and socio-emotional.
