The Dementia Live Experience immerses participants into life with dementia. Participants will experience an unforgettable, inside-out understanding of cognitive impairment and sensory changes through this state-of-the-art awareness program. Participants are guided through common, everyday tasks and exercises while their senses are altered. Family members and caregivers will be empowered by understanding and feeling what the person with dementia is experiencing. Participants should prepare for a maximum of 1 hour to complete the Dementia Live Experience.

Quotes

For over two and a half years my husband was a resident. A former nurse, a good friend of mine, went with me to look over memory care facilities and, after a few moments at Emerald Crest we both agreed this was the place for Chuck. I was happy to visit there and observe their daily activities and how they engaged the residents and how caring all the staff was. I have even visited after my husband's death, because I wanted to see staff people again. We couldn't have made a better choice.

— Alice, wife of resident
