What is the Dementia Live Program?
The Dementia Live Program is a cutting-edge, immersive training experience created by AGE-u-cate Training Institute. Designed to build greater empathy and understanding, this program places caregivers and family members in the shoes of someone living with dementia, both physically and emotionally.
Using specially designed tools that alter perception, participants experience firsthand the confusion, frustration, and sensory changes associated with dementia. From struggling to button a shirt to feeling overwhelmed by noise and light, the simulation offers a powerful perspective shift that goes far beyond classroom learning.
The goal? To deepen caregivers’ compassion and sharpen their skills. At Always Best Care of Burlington, Dementia Live training equips our staff to respond with more patience, improve communication, and create environments that reduce stress and support dignity. It’s not just training, it’s transformation.
