Right at Home's Dementia Support Training Program

Right at Home is Launching a New Dementia Support Program

We will be attending Right at Home’s new, proprietary Dementia Support Program in San Diego.  This program is designed to help improve the quality of life for those living with dementia and cognitive change.   Implementing the principals of this innovative program, including accessing ability (current of ongoing), person-hood and history and lifestyle goals, is a priority for our office as we continue to see more and more of our clients, and their families, impacted by one of the many forms of dementia, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and others.  Right at Home will use this new approach to become the leader in care for those suffering from dementia.

Our Person Centered Program Teaches Caregivers to:

• Understand emotional and behavioral variations
• Promote independence whenever possible
• Listen effectively to verbal and non-verbal communication
• Overcome care plan obstacles through redirection
• Engage clients in activities without over stimulating
• Apply problem-solving techniques to daily challenges
• Reduce anxiety by maintaining familiar routines
• Assist with peer socialization
• Encourage appropriate physical activities 
• Respond positively to difficult care situations
• Preserve client individuality and dignity
• Provide a sense of security, familiarity, and structure
