🌟 This week's #MeetTheTeam spotlight is on our Founder and President, Kim Warchol! 🌟 We asked Kim, "How does dementia care education benefit organizations in handling evolving care challenges?" Here’s what she had to say: Dementia Capable Care (DCC) training empowers staff with knowledge and skills that make a positive impact on lives and outcomes. Let’s look at two challenges an investment in DCC helps address. 1️⃣ About 90% of those living with dementia experience distress behaviors such as anxiety, agitation, and aggression at some point during their dementia journey. There is much we can do to reduce frequency and severity, without drugs. When trained in DCC, staff learn to: · See distress behavior as a communication that something is wrong. · Understand behavior influences behavior. · Avoid triggering personal or universal stressors like a history of trauma, or pain, which often create distress behavior reactions. · Observe and categorize behaviors to respond with the right approach to deescalate, preventing a crisis. · Respond to keep all safe if a crisis happens. 2️⃣ Falls are common and often lead to injury, hospitalization, or death. Staff learn information about dementia stages to help reduce falls. They will: · Understand when it’s vital to anticipate and proactively meet a person’s needs. · Understand when memory becomes so impaired, recalling directions (e.g. wait here) or use of call lights, is impossible. · Set-up a safe environment. · Know how to keep clients meaningfully engaged, reducing pacing due to boredom. 🚀 Ready to take your dementia care skills to the next level?

⭐ This week's #MeetTheTeam spotlight shines on Sharon Jackson, one of our Global Professional Instructors. 🌟 We asked Sharon, "How can de-escalation techniques in dementia care training help in managing challenging behaviors?" Here’s what she had to say: "Not all dementia trainings address de-escalation. And yet, given the prevalence of behaviors and impact, being able to quickly calm a stress reaction to keep all safe should be a high-priority skill. Our Dementia Capable Care Training Programs utilize CPI’s Crisis Development Model teaching participants to identify the behavior level and utilize the corresponding staff approach. This skill is vital to ensure those interacting with individuals with dementia are well-equipped to de-escalate a crisis or challenging situation. Participants often state this is one of the things that makes our training unique and valuable. A Dementia Capable Care trained care partner applies what they’ve learned with the lens “all behavior has meaning and is communication”. They learn to identify the behavior level observed and skillfully respond with the approach that matches the behavior level, returning the person (and care partner) to a state of calm. As example, they would recognize an individual yelling and raising their fist, is exhibiting Defensive behavior. The approach to deescalate is Directive such as, “I can see you are upset. If you stop yelling, we can discuss how I can help you”. 🚀 Ready to take your dementia care skills to the next level?
