Montessori for Dementia

The Montessori Approach enhances quality of life for people living with dementia by creating an environment in which they can succeed. Individuals living the Montessori way, do as much for themselves and others as possible, rather than having things done to them or for them. 

As Maria Montessori said; “everything you do FOR me you take FROM me.” 

What you'll learn from this innovative and inspiring approach:

• Understand the real reason why elders become depressed, exit seek, and walk about — and learn the exact steps you can take to prevent these behaviours from happening (instead of simply trying to “manage” them)
• Discover a powerful approach to dementia care that will totally change your perspective on aging and dementia
• Successfully reduce or eliminate the repetitive questioning behaviours that can be so frustrating
• Start using a simple tool for helping people engage in meaningful conversations
• Identify mistakes we unknowingly make in wayfinding & signage, leading to confusion — and how to correct them
• Develop skills to effectively communicate with people with dementia
• Discover how to help people with dementia learn new or previously known information. Yes, people with cognitive impairment can learn and retain new information! They’re shown how, step by step.
