When I started at English Meadows, I completed the Dementia By Day School module, and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. The team's insights are invaluable, and I’m excited to apply these techniques to make a meaningful difference in my residents' care.

Hi, I’m Rachael Wonderlin & I'm the founder of Dementia By Day and Dementia By Day School
And I think the old way we teach dementia care is outdated! Isn't it time we had an online platform where your team could learn on their own time? You know, instead of being shuttled through a 3-hour dementia care DVD or kinda-boring-online "What is dementia" course the first time they walk through your door?
I have a Master's in Gerontology and am the author of 3 books with Johns Hopkins University Press. At my consulting agency, Dementia By Day, I work with senior living companies who want to level up their dementia care game. I'd love to help you do exactly that.
Let's change the way we teach dementia care.
"I'm not easily impressed—and I was very impressed."

Dementia By Day School Pricing for Teams
Most of our clients work with us as a consulting and fractional operations firm, plus go through our education programs, but some teams only want the educational piece. If that sounds like you, please email us at [email protected]
"Going into this new training course, I thought, 'Oh no, another drawn-out, redundant course!' However, what I found with Dementia By Day School was a refreshing and most enlightening experience! Rachael's nuggets of wisdom, transparency and knowledge has really brought a new light on working with residents in Memory Care. It was fun and easy. But, most importantly, her training style kept me engaged! I highly recommend her and her courses!"
