Programs
The Cheering Voices helps to assure that patients with cognitive disorders can continue to cherish musical experiences while enjoying an enhanced quality of life. Live musicians and facilitators help engage nursing home residents affected by Dementia, Alzheimer’s and other memory disorders with their caregivers and family members.
Give a gift from the heart and watch someone's eyes light up. The Cheering Closet is stocked from donations of new personal items and gifts which are delivered to residents in nursing homes. The program provides a way to make seniors feel like they matter and distributes everyday items to those in need.
Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia Care Training
Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia Care Training
Take the path to certification as a Certified Dementia Practitioner through the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners.
Caring for someone with dementia poses many challenges for professional caregivers. Dementia caregiving is a world where the “normal” rules don’t apply and we all need guidance learning to support, motivate, and keep people with dementia safe. Providing specialist dementia training for caregivers makes a huge difference in many ways.
