Mindful Paths to Dementia Care Program
Accessible memory care training to support people living with dementia.
My Nurse Class developed the Mindful Paths to Dementia Care program for nursing teams who want to learn real-life practical information on how to care for someone living with dementia. The Mindful Paths to Dementia Care program provides a simple, practical framework that care staff can use to deliver high-quality care while focusing on individual abilities and unique needs.
What are the benefits for staff when they take the Mindful Paths to Dementia Care program?
- Recognize how to put the resident first, always.
- Understand how the resident is at the centre of support, with individuality and personhood as the primary focus of care.
- Identify how personal, social, and cultural history, personality, interests, daily routines, preferences, and emotional triggers (including any history of trauma) are gathered and used to provide care and support that meets the resident's needs.
- Recognize that the resident's cognitive level is critical to determining the support they require.
- Through skilled observations and assessments, carers learn how to identify the resident's stage of dementia, their challenges, and, importantly, their capabilities.
- The training teaches carers how to adapt the care approach, the activity, and the environment to build trust, agreement, and interest.
- Understand all behaviour is communication.
- How to prevent and confidently de-escalate distress to minimize pharmacological and other coercive or restrictive practices.
Yes, It Really Is Possible!
The program offers two courses. The first course is for the entire care team, and the second course has a recreation focus and is for any care team member involved in recreation-oriented activities. The courses can be taken together as a complete program or as a stand-alone course.
