CAPStone : Dignity in Dementia Training

 

CAPStone:

Dignity in Dementia Training

Creative Approaches Person-centered Solutions

 

CAPStone is a formalized educational experience that incorporates team building, interactive learning, and hands-on coaching. It is a systems changing process that enables care to be given in a manner that preserves the individual resident’s dignity, and achieves and maintains their highest level of function while addressing and reducing challenging behaviors.

CAPStone is designed to:

  • Heighten staff sensitivity to potential unmet needs of residents with dementia
  • Develop effective communication skills which can enhance relationships of trust between residents, families and caregivers
  • Increase awareness of environmental elements that can enrich quality of life
  • Develop strategic plans to implement new approaches in care practices for improved resident outcomes
  • Develop team-based practices that will transition to delivery of person-centered care for all residents regardless of their diagnoses
  • Customize programs to meet the needs of individual organizations

All  CAPStone educational sessions offer CEUs for nurses, administrators and activity professionals.
