Abstract
Age related memory deficiencies have been extensively reported in the literature. Although short-term memory seems to deteriorate with age, perhaps because of poorer sorting strategies, long-term memory does not show similar changes. However, in nearly every instance, well educated, mentally active people do not exhibit the same decline in memory functioning as their age peers who lack similar opportunities to flex their minds. Nevertheless, with few exceptions, the time required for memory scanning is longer for both recent and remote recall among older people. This can sometimes be attributed to social or health factors (e.g. stress, fatigue, illness), but it can also occur because of certain normal physical changes associated with aging The study was conducted in old age home, Probability sampling technique in simple random sampling techniques (lottery method) was used with select the samples. The investigator selected 60 older people as per the inclusion and exclusion criteria.The older people were introduced with the whole programme after an introduction and then a written informed consent was obtained from them for willingness to participate in the study. They were assured that their responses and details will be kept confidential and will be used only for the research purpose. Before the tool was administered some informal discussion were made with participants to establish rapport so that theywould be relaxed. The total60 older people were divided into two groups. Each group contained 30 people in (experimental group 30 and control group 30). Data collection was used in descriptive and inferentional statsitics.
