September is World Alzheimer's Month 💚
Curious to find ways to keep your loved one engaged at home? You're not alone. 🤔
The Montessori approach might be the missing piece. Originally developed as an educational philosophy, it was adapted for dementia care in the 1990s and has been used in care settings around the world ever since. The idea: build on the skills someone already has, rather than asking them to learn or remember something new.
That's why our latest Care Labs content dives into the Montessori approach: what it is, why it works, and how families can try it at home, plus a free 30-minute course and a quick-reference infographic if you'd rather see the key points at a glance.
Because supporting someone with dementia isn't about keeping them busy. It's about helping them feel purposeful, capable, and like themselves. 💚
This World Alzheimer's Month, head over to The Care Labs to explore the guide, infographic, and course, and let us know what topics you'd like us to cover next.
