What if dementia education was fun?

The one thing that I continue running into while working with senior living organizations is this: although they all have different needs and programs, they ALL need staff training. Why not make it fun, applicable and enjoyable all at once?

Are you tired of cramming a bunch of training DVDs and Alzheimer Association talks together to make up the entirety of your state-mandated training hours?

Some communities I talk to turned to Relias for their online dementia training, but find it lacking in scope. Others show their staff a selection of DVDs from the early 2000s. Still others build their own trainings in Powerpoint or on their bulky, confusing HR platforms...and then realize that these fun-bereft slideshows don't get the job done.

So, I started thinking, "What if we...tried something different?"

My program is $15,000 for the year or 12 monthly payments of $1,500—for a full organization. How much money have your individual buildings spent cobbling together half-baked trainings? Probably a lot more than that.

Cardinal Senior Management and Elysian Senior Homes are currently sending their entire teams through Dementia By Day School!

I'm really enjoying this course! It's very informative and having it split up into short videos keeps my attention. This is for sure breathing new life into information that was buried in my brain!

— Amber Frey, Admissions at Cardinal

We held off enrolling in a dementia training because we couldn’t find anything that the care staff could really utilize during an 8-hour shift with our residents. This training, however, is so applicable and the team is enjoying and learning from it! The other day the care staff asked about our new carpet installation—they’d just watched the interior design portion of the course and were wondering if the carpet provided enough contrast for the residents!

—Lucy Boxrud, President of Elysian Senior Homes

"This is a great refresher course for those of us who have been working with our seniors for years, but also updates us on more creative ways to help those whose brains and minds are changing. We were always taught that it is NOT okay to 'lie' to them and that we needed to MAKE them understand our reality. I find that the staff can be fearful of what is 'right' and what is wrong to say to their residents and this educational piece gives the staff some great information on what to say—not only to their residents but also gives them some great tools to share with the residents' loved ones."

FAQs

Couldn't we just keep using that old dementia care DVD we have?

I mean...I guess so?

We use a program that our old HR Director built.

Ohhhhhhkay...so...you're saying that's enough, right?

We have Relias, so, we're good.

I know, I know, they have a dementia care class. But, I'm the only person who teaches Embracing Their Reality(TM) and explains dementia care the way that I do. I'm all about the tangible tips and advice, and I think this is something you should know about, too!

Can you just build this on our platform so we can use it from there?

Yes, technically, I can. Let's talk about what that looks like. Although, I must tell you, using it on here is a LOT more cost effective for you in the long run: that's why I built this! I also have an option where you can see and track your team's own progress.
