Still Me Dementia Care™
Person Centered Staff Education and Training
In her role as staff educator, Marilyn trains care partners to see the resident as, “Still Me and Still Capable”. A care partner’s approach will either engage or disengage a resident. The SMDC Education series focuses on resident engagement by understanding and demonstrating best practices for Person-Centered Dementia Care as mandated by state regulations and the National Alzheimer’s Association. The in-person multi-media trainings demonstrate how to approach individual residents with personal care and life enriching activities.
