- “Revolutionizing Dementia Care” reveals how people living with dementia can still live a full and meaningful life based on their abilities, not their disabilities. Innovative approaches in memory care communities have shown improvements in the well-being of residents as they're included, engaged and supported in social gatherings, clubs and everyday activities. A revolution is here where people living with dementia get the individual heart-felt care they need.

“Revolutionizing Dementia Care” was an official selection of the 2018 Virginia Film Festival
My mom is 95 ,this is part of life , . Thank you God.
One of the most powerful documentaries I've watched. A true testament to person centered approach to care. All facilities should adopt this approach.
This documentary works for anyone who is interested in understanding dementia and how person centred care promotes and strengthens well being for the individual. This is evidence based practice at its best. If we ignore this and focus only on the cost then we are missing the point.
What a great documentary. I've worked in the health field helping elders at home.
It is so important to have a routine, stay engaged, whether it's crafts or music or cleaning etc..it's really important to let clients be part of every day day life(within safety bounds)

Oh my God, wonderful documentary. Person center care should be everyone's goal in any kind of care!!!! :)
This video simply doesn't address the various stages of dementia. All the people portrayed appear to be happy reasonably alert souls, apparently in the early stages of dementia - and, yes, there is a window when they are still cognisant of their surroundings - but there is the indubitable fact that it's short-lived; the brain is indefatigably in a process of being destroyed. What truly matters is the palliative care when they are no longer dancing or jumping out of a plane or socially engaging, and require calming medication, the tenderness of touch and warmth and a feeling of safety when they've moved beyond that stage into the final period of their death. This is me writing having been there for my mother, seen that, done that, with great learning and grief.
That was a beautiful documentary. I wish there were more and more person centered care available.
Here in finland, it is implemented as the standard routine at every care home etc
I wish you could pay more and more tax from your wages, so everybody could get person centered care!

This is the best Documentary on Dementia that I have ever seen! Thank you all very much, this is so powerful!!!
So amazing absolutely first class training. Amazing team work and genuine love and care 💕💕💕
This is Earth-shattering, groundbreaking and breathtaking. Next week we're moving my mom into memory care. I'm going to challenge my sister to watch this video and NOT be inspired to volunteer to implement some of this stuff in my mom's new place. I myself can hardly wait to help with sing-alongs, gardening and now, even want to get to know the other residents. Thank you to everyone who has thought of something unique for are beloved persons with dementia.
Thank you!
So much to say.
My mom did not want to be bothered with any of that. She never lived that way, and did not want to change when she got sick.. there are NO answers... day to day experience, everyone is different.
This disease is very expensive to treat. Medicare does not cover nursing homes/assisted living Maybe we should make one less warship one less fighter jet and use that money to help these people.
There are assisted living places that accept medicare.
💚 This gives me hope! What brilliant people!
Omg this is so encouraging and beautiful...... where is this?!.... I never ever wanted to have my mom go into the care of someone else.... but this clearly shows me that someone else can help her more than I can.......which breaks my heart 😭 but at the same time is so.... I don’t really know the right word.... relieving, maybe...
Thank you so much for making this film, and to everyone involved from the property owners to the staff....❤️❤️
We need the villages though...we really do, with the shops and grocery and hair salons, barber shops, coffee shops, restaurants...so they can do the same sort of things they did when they lived in their homes...the mini apartments, etc...and best of all the GPS tracking devices that Denmark was using on their residents of their village...without that, we are only giving them a step above our Nursing Homes...they can't get the full experience of still having control over their lives and what they want to do every day...don't get me wrong here, this is a wonderful start...but, we still need these other things to give elderly a fuller life and a fuller life, means a happier, longer life. I totally agree about not doping the patients up...in so many nursing homes, because they don't have the staff to care for their patients...they just dope them up and they are strapped in some chair all day...doing nothing but being passed out...it's so sad...we need to change the way we think...I so wish we would send people that would be interested in running these specialized homes, to Denmark to visit and learn their approach too...because because continuing to be able to do live an independent life is so important...they have mastered it in Denmark.
Really? You are deluded, my dear. I work in Danmarks nursing home and I used to work in UKs: not big difference. Do you realize, that demetia sick people is not only calm, smiling, friendly old person?! MOST OF THEM are aggressive, violent, abusive people, completely disorientated and taking care staff for their enemies? You know nothing about care.

Amen to Janet's comment one yea ago. Denmark is a wonderful country. I read all about it on the
internet. Their RH crown prince and princess have a wonderful marriage and four beautiful children. They are still so much in love one can tell!

I quit after we had a representative from a company talk to us about nothing, and she said " you certainly don't this for the money, that's for sure!" I then realized she's right, caring for people does not pay the bills, the wages are at poverty level, I couldn't keep it up. I make more money selling donuts.
That's just sad it has to be this way 😕😔
You absolutely right...these people are making a ton of money meanwhile these places are are all understaff
The people who are doing most of the work are paid peanuts....
I don't know if this is just for the camera....
They sure saying all the right things.
The people who can afford to live in these assisted living facilities have it soo much better than the ordinary person.
Great video Thank you❤️
Thankyou for this information.
People have a purpose!
Although the care and programs they are showing do seem to work I started noticing about half way through that all the residents were white, while most of the care givers were not white. I assume this is an indication of cost- my mom's care facility is $6300/month. It takes a lot of people to provide that level of care. If a person's family can only afford half that cost what does it look like?
It's hard to keep good care takers. Low pay and high turnover are major problem s.
The thing that makes me sad is the lack of outdoor activities. I just can't stand being inside so doubt I'll be able to adjust to that in old age.
I saw this on TV to day.everyone should see .and .
Aso.staff and family's dealing with it...beautiful .it meant a great deal to me I visited& prayed for people in nursing homes 15years.and I highly recommend this program in nursing Homes and watch it here.🤔😊💖
The problem is the price $9,000 a month. Unless someone pays for long-term care insurance, who can afford this. A friend has been paying $8,000 a year and another $4,000 a year for LTC insurance. I know music helps a lot.
I am in south central Illinois and ALF is $5,000 a month. Nursing home is way over $10,000 a month. I don't know what the cost of LTC insurance premiums are, I have not checked into that but I need to.
Also, my grandma had LTC insurance and in 2015, her insurance paid $80 per day. So the nursing home was $204 per day at that time in 2015. So her insurance didn't even come close to even half of the price of the nursing home. But I was still glad she had it because it was better than nothing.
What a amazing and beautiful Cognitive, Emotional & Social Work in Dementia Rehabilitation...
It will be the future? I hope !
Here, in Europe, some countries have doing some good work in this area, although there are still many of them that maintain old practices and forget the importance of Cognitive & Emotional Training...
I' m postgraduate in health communication & I do Cognitive Stimulation and Training with Elder with Dementia, in Portugal.
Here, this area isn't considered as an important Area, related to an increase of Life Quality and Cognitive & Emotional Health of People with Dementia.
Extraordinary 🥰
note to self - Mention to staff that I the smell of lavender. ( LOL actually, I do work in a nursing home with dementia residents and this is a great video.)
Worked in facilities who had this approach but lack of staff and meaningful adult activities made the program spiral. The greed of the facility kept residents in memory care who should have been placed in skill nursing. With dementia there's only decline. Activities are geared towards the women. Male residents didn't want to play bingo or do art and crafts. The resident activities felt like a grade school class room.
Right now there are 2 generations of seniors in facility care. Those born during the depression and baby boomers they couldn't be more polar opposites. One facility would not let the residents have any down time. I always thought well maybe today they don't feel like painting a paper plate or glueing yarn on a clothes pen. People are living a lot longer but not better. Longevity can be a curse. My best advice is get a living will. Make sure you're a DNR. Why be brought back from a stroke to live in a wheelchair unable to do anything for yourself.
I do this for a living ...we are trying hard to adopt this concept ,,,not quite there yet but are working towards it. One thing not mentioned...staff to resident ratio. I would be interested to know what that was.Great documentary
Exactly.. all theese new ideas & consepts al the time. Every change brings more individual work for every carer.. but it's not often you really have sufficiant numbers of educated staff to really implement all the new ideas..
That's true because most staff who work in care homes only have time to deliver basic care. X
@@vickielee9523 exactly:(
As a normal person, i would like to be here too heheheh. Or plan to when i reach a certain age. This is great but the number of care-givers (passionate ones) ratio and the level of service requires alot of money - in many countries. This level of care is for private practices. It would be great if most of us could provide/afford this level of care for our aged loved ones. Have read in other fb groups the challenges of many care-givers ie family members. Many are not able to afford good nursing homes of this nature, unfortunately. We need alot more awareness on awareness so we know how to give support and care in society. Governments should intervene alot more not just for the children but for the ageing population problem which isn't going away anytime soon. xox
Those houses and staff are wonderful, but how expensive ? 💖
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 stay strong for a cure
this could be a lot of us.
Holy shit, this should have been freaking obvious? Who doesnt treat the people in their lives like this? Are you telling me this is "care" and not just being actively respectful to other peopl?
Teodor,
You're so right. It should have been freaking ovbious. But how many senior's care facilities have you visited? Even within families, there's still a stigma attached to dementia/alzheimer's that many many people do not recognize is preventing them from just simply engaging with their loved one, now with dementia, in their "new normal" state of mind. It should be freaking obvious but still is not.
This looks too much like an infomercial for English Rose Suites. This documentary only works for those who can afford the high cost of assisted living or whatever else they call it.
I totally agree! We are poor where do I get help????
@@jeffrey63031 There are many assisted living & Dementia care places that take Medicare.
@@jeffrey63031 If you don't want to end up in a nursing home there plenty of Google play apps that will engage your brain.
Once you are placed in one of the these places it might be difficult to get out of it.
I tried very hard to help my husband having to take care of him myself and I am disabled. Everyone would tell me WHAT TO DO BUT NOBODY COULD TELL ME WHERE TO TAKE HIM!!!!
I FINALLY had to put my husband in a nursing home that was dark, dreary and depressing...that's what Medicare would pay for...nobody properly took care of the loved ones...!!!! My husband PASSED AWAY this June...0ne day after being placed!!!!
I think this place sounds great but I wasn't able to find one!!!
Please don't tell me what will happen...I KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!😥😥😥
@@jeffrey63031 I am so sorry for your loss. Things must change
The story about the man who fell and wasn't found for over an hour. When you live on assisted living, you have to be able to cope pretty much on your own with some care but not babysitter. Saying he didn't get taken care of properly isn't a fair statement. Residents have ways of reaching out for help if they are injured etc. Maybe he want cognitive enough to understand. Sorry for your families loss
This sucks my mom has this
Hey
Truly an amazing documentary. One that should be shown as part of orientations in care and medical organizations, in schools, and throughout our communities. Well done!
Remove aallll confectionay sugar and you will see a difference in their demeanour
I want to watch this but there isn't decent care for people in NM for under $5000. a month.
What a wonderfully powerful documentary. Thanks a million!
If there was a way to help improve a dementia patients condition would you try it? Please take an eyebrow tweezers and remove the hair and/or hair follicles from the hands and feet. The treatment is easy and the results will be immediate.
What would be the result of all that pain? You have a warped view of what improvement is.
