Our Caregivers Have Advanced DementiaWise® Training to Support People with Alzheimer’s and Other Forms of Dementia
Dementia is a diagnosis that can leave individuals and their families feeling lost and confused. Some believe that their independent lives are over. Families feel the pressure to be with their loved one 24 hours a day or find a care facility to provide for all their needs.
Here at ComForCare Flint, we believe strongly in providing the services that allow our clients to remain in their homes, leading as independent lives as possible while making sure they have the help they need to safely go through their daily activities. Our professional caregivers receive extensive training, including going through the DementiaWise® program, so you can be confident knowing your loved one is in good hands.
Denny and Sally Fox owners of ComForCare Flint in Michigan were excited to learn and implement ComForCare’s DementiaWise® program as the majority of the clients they serve have dementia. Sally and Denny have found the program “empowering” for everyone on staff – from administrators to caregivers. The insights this program provides has been transformative to the service we offer.
“Once caregivers are trained, they recognize that their innate skills for working with those with dementia are effective,” Sally said. “They know they are doing the right things to help their clients, and their shifts are easier.
Both clients and caregivers are having “better days” with DementiaWise®.
“The whole program works,” she explained. “And even using just the first two tools, ‘check yourself’ and ‘make a warm connection,’ has such a positive impact.”
The program is making a difference in the lives of clients and their families. “To see a loved one return to an activity he or she once loved means so much to the family,” Sally said. “Our caregivers have what it takes to inspire clients to do more.”
