Full Video - Person-Centered Matters

This video beautifully portrays the lives of 5 people living with dementia and shows how person-centered care helps them live meaningful lives. Person-centered care helps make life better for someone living with dementia and for those who care about them.
"Person-centered" care is the recognized gold standard for anyone living with dementia, including Alzheimer's. This video, intended for caregivers, shows the positive results when person-centered care is used -- in the home and in elder care settings. A renowned geriatrician, social worker, and family members describe the benefits and importance of person-centeredness.
“Person-Centered Matters” is a beautiful and compelling 16-minute video produced by a former National Geographic filmmaker that shows how easy and beneficial person-centered care is. If you know someone living with dementia you will not want to miss this wonderful video. For more information: www.ccal.org/dementia-action-a...

Great video. But the subtitles and captions need to be turned on to make this accessible.

This is a great, positive video. I have copied and shared it. "...Even though dementia is something that affects the brain, dementia does not equal or result in a loss of intelligence, on the contrary people use their intelligence to overcome some of the impairments that dementia causes. You can think of it in some ways as having a little bit of bed wiring or having a block here or there that people can work around. While there are many losses that people experience from dementia, Dementia does not make you stupid, it does not rob you of your ability to experience joy, to be happy...".

This is such an insightful presentation, "build on their strengths instead of focusing on what they can not do, they still have meaning in life!"

Excellent video! I will be using it to educate my class on dementia and person-centered care.

Excellent approach. Appreciate the message it focuses on building meaning and purpose to people with dementia by discovering what they still CAN do rather than dwelling on what they can't do.
