At Assisting Hands Home Care, we understand that delivering exceptional care involves a commitment to continuous learning, personal growth, and fostering strong community relationships. Recently, we collaborated with SaraBella Assisted Living to host an important training event for our caregivers and their staff. Marcy MacPherson from Still Alive Inside conducted an extensive training session focused on advanced dementia care techniques.
This in-depth training offered valuable insights into supporting clients in the later stages of dementia. While our caregivers already have a solid foundation in Alzheimer’s and dementia care, this event was designed to further enhance their skills and expertise for even more specialized support.
Event Highlights
Advanced Training: The session was grounded in the Positive Approach to Care, developed by Teepa Snow and presented by Marcy MacPherson. This relationship-centered approach emphasizes recognizing the strengths of individuals living with cognitive decline, enabling caregivers to create supportive environments that foster dignity, comfort, and empathy.
Building Expertise: Our caregivers engaged in this interactive training, earning educational units and certification in advanced dementia care. This certification demonstrates their dedication to understanding the unique needs of seniors with late-stage dementia and providing care that genuinely makes a difference.
