Copying and its concomitant tracing: Advantages for clients with dementia

Eastern State Hospital, Williamsburg, Virginia

Walter L. Brown, ATR

Essex County Hospital Center, Cedar Grove, New Jersey

The purpose of this article is to discuss the advantages of using copying and tracing during supportive, educational and therapeutic sessions with clients who are diagnosed with dementia. Originality and inventiveness are pursued to such a great extent in working with clients, that this population for whom such is not always possible, may be forgotten. The authors attempt to demonstrate that copying and tracing are perfectly legitimate and often productive forms of operation for clients with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.
