As a Certified Facilitator of Dementia Live™, The Edel Caregiver Institute offers a unique opportunity for family and professional caregivers to briefly, yet movingly, experience the challenges and struggles of a person living with dementia.
Dementia Live® is an innovative program designed by a team of dementia, sensitivity and awareness, and professional development experts from the nationally recognized AGE-u-cate® Training Institute.
Using specialized gear within a safe, experiential setting, Dementia Live® provides and gives participants a real-life simulation of what it must be like to live with dementia. Participants gain a greater awareness and understanding of the constant struggles (24/7) affecting persons with dementia. Greater understanding leads to more sensitive care partnering.
