Abstract

Background: In the past few years, occupational therapists have been increasingly working with geriatric clients and have used interventions focused on enhancing independance and quality of life. In this area of practice, the cognitive training intervention aimed more specifically at memory disorders, is a promising intervention for the area of aging and occupational therapy. Purpose: The aim of this literature review is to present an overview of the fundamentals, objectives and procedures of the cognitive training intervention used with the following populations: aging people presenting a memory disorder associated with normal aging with mild cognitive impairment or with Alzheimer's disease. Practice Implications: A discussion on the cognitive management of memory is presented with respect to the cognitive characteristics of each of these clients.
