SUMMARY:Dementia Experience
DESCRIPTION:DEMENTIA EXPERIENCE SHOWS DEMENTIA IS MORE THAN MEMORY LOSS \nFreedom Home Care and Laurel’s Peak Rehabilitation Center ask community members to join them for a unique experience that will change the way they view Dementia. \nThe Dementia Experience aims to educate people that Dementia is about much more than memory loss.   The experience includes a Virtual Dementia Tour and a Dementia Friends Presentation. \n2019 Dates \nJanuary 15 \nApril 9 \nJuly 9 \nOctober 15 \nVirtual Dementia Tours – 3:30 to 5:00 p.m.Dementia Friends Presentation – 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.Virtual Dementia Tours – 7 to 7:30 p.m. \nParticipants need to register in advance to ensure a space in the Virtual Dementia Tour. Individual tours last 15 minutes. \nThe Virtual Dementia Tour is an evidence based\, scientific approach that helps people build a better understanding of dementia. During a Virtual Dementia Tour experience\, trained facilitators guide participants outfitted with patented devices that alter their senses while they try to complete common everyday tasks and exercises. The Tour enables caregivers to experience for themselves the physical and mental challenges those with dementia face\, and use the experience to provide better person-centered care. \n“The facts about dementia are staggering\,” said participants JoAnn and Terry Alfson. “The dementia tour helped us to experience the reality of having dementia first hand. We experienced a change in our perspective and expectations\, we learned what we are really powerless over and opened our hearts to more compassion. It was a huge eye opener to the reality of dementia. We are grateful for the opportunity of the experience.” \nThe second part of the Dementia experience is a one-hour Dementia Friends presentation by Christine Nessler\, co-owner and Community Outreach Manager for Freedom Home Care. Nessler is a Dementia Friend Champion through Dementia Friends Minnesota\, an ACT on Alzheimer’s Initiative and has been doing these presentations since 2014. Dementia Friends was developed by the Alzheimer’s Society in the United Kingdom as a way to change the way people think\, act\, and talk about dementia. The Dementia Friends Initiative is now underway in Minnesota. The goal of the Dementia Friends Session is to help community members understand dementia and the small things they can do to make a difference for people living with dementia. \n“As a result of the training\, I hold a deeper respect for people who are experiencing dementia. I have a greater understanding of how I can talk and be with those who have dementia\,” said participant Mary Ann Boe.  “Most importantly\, I learned that it is one’s intent and loving presence that is most accessible and stays with a person affected by dementia\, more than the things that are said.” \nCommunity members should register for this event with Christine Nessler at Freedom Home Care at 507.387.4663 or cnessler@freedomhomecarellc.com. Virtual Dementia Tours will be scheduled in 15 minute time slots from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. and from 7:00 to 7:30 p.m. \nLearn more about the Virtual Dementia Tour(http://www.secondwind.org/virtual-dementia-tour/) \nLearn more about Laurel’s Peak Rehabilitation Center (link to https://monarchmn.com/laurels-peak-rehabilitation-center/) \nTo learn more about Freedom Home Care\, LLC (freedomhomecarellc.com) or call 507.387.HOME (4663).
