Dementia Care Specialists at Crisis Prevention Institute, Inc.’s Post

🌟 This week's #MeetTheTeam spotlight shines on Sharon Jackson, one of our Global Professional Instructors. 🌟 We asked Sharon, "How does our training make an impact on professional development?" Here’s what she had to say: "As a Trainer of Dementia Capable Care for over 10 years, I have met individuals from many different health care professions; Nursing, Social Services, Therapy Professionals, and Activities professionals to name a few. These individuals range from new to the field to quite experienced. No matter what level of experience, the general response after taking our course is that they have learned something in a way they have not heard before. The general discussion is that Dementia Capable Care is a training which provides a language, philosophy, framework, and practical base of knowledge that can empower staff to provide the person-centered ability-based care they have always wanted to provide. They feel this knowledge is truly for everyone, at all levels of healthcare. As part of my role, I am privileged to work with healthcare partners in their communities as well. It fills my heart, when I am able to see the impact this training can have first-hand. I see healthcare professionals and the direct care partner’s joy and confidence build as they use the approaches and have success. When teams across all professions are all speaking the same language, working from the same core principles, and see individuals living with dementia as people first, the positive outcomes follow. This impact then affects the lives of those living with dementia, their loved ones as well as us - the health care professionals who partner and support in care. Our vision is to create a dementia capable society, will you join us?" 🌐 Ready to take your dementia care skills to the next level?
