This series of webinars, presented by Kathleen Weissberg from Select Rehabilitation, is a comprehensive look at quality dementia care opportunities. The series begins with an overview of evidence-based interventions to address common “problematic” dementia behaviors. Developing and fostering a person-centered Montessori-based approach for aging and dementia will be explored next. The third installment looks specifically at how providers can tackle loneliness and social isolation in residents with dementia (particularly in light of the COVID pandemic). The series ends with a “design-on-a-dime” approach to setting up a multi-sensory stimulation space that impacts the quality of life of persons with dementia without relying on pharmacology.
