This facility in the Netherlands is trying a new type of dementia care. It resembles a small town community more than it does a care facility. Residents can shop at the grocery store (no money needed) and do other daily life activities. Staff blend right in as storekeepers and in other roles.
We have great things to share this month on how to help keep people with dementia active. You can read, listen, and view the article, radio show, and video that are offered in this information filled newsletter. Enjoy!
