Last week, Market Street Viera associates took part in a live virtual dementia training experience with Deidra, Barbara, and Rebecca from the Memory Disorder Clinic at Health First! They performed tasks while wearing sunglasses, headphones, and gloves to simulate our own residents' experiences. This illuminating training gave our team a deeper understanding of what our residents may feel on a day-to-day basis, something crucial for providing the compassionate care they deserve! 🧠💡 #DementiaTraining #EmpathyInAction #WeAreWatercrest #MemoryCare
