Guided imagery: a tool to guide the way for the nursing home patient
Adv Mind Body Med.

Abstract
Nursing-home patients often ask "Why me? Why am I still here?" They often feel helpless and abandoned. A guided-visualization intervention called "The Waiting Room" was used for 35 patients who expressed these feelings. This visualization could be a tool in helping nursing-home patients find peace.
