Did you know that even though there are already currently over 50 million people on the planet living with dementia, that number is anticipated to surge to 131 million by 2050? Because of staggering health increases like this one, it's imperative to adopt evidence-based approaches aimed at improving the quality of life for those under our care. This involves offering comprehensive training and resources to ensure optimal care provision.

One such approach is person-centered dementia care, which prioritizes the individuals with dementia and their caregivers, placing them at the heart of care delivery. This method emphasizes a holistic perspective, aiming to maintain their overall well-being and enhance their quality of life. Learn more about the following:

  • Explore the fundamentals of dementia
  • Essential elements of the person-centered care approach in dementia care
  • The significance of prioritizing person-centered dementia care
  • Tactics and materials to promote person-centered dementia care across various settings
  • A case study illustrating exemplary practices: How ComForCare, through its pioneering training program DementiaWise®, is enhancing person-centered care for dementia clients in home settings, yielding positive outcomes for clients, families, and care teams
  • Effective strategies and resources to incorporate into dementia caregiving programs aimed at bolstering person-centered care and enhancing the lives of individuals with dementia and their caregivers
