DEMENTIA CARE
Dementia Care
Specialty Program
“A Dementia Care Specialty Program delivers services that focus on the unique and changing physical, cognitive, communication, emotional, psychosocial, behavioral, occupational, medical, palliative, educational, environmental, and leisure/recreational needs of persons with dementia. Leadership fosters a relationship-centered culture in which persons served, families/support systems, and all personnel are empowered to make decisions in partnership based on the preferences, strengths, and needs of the person served.
​
The program integrates services to support persons served with dementia to live their best life, including:
— Preserving dignity and personhood.
— Minimizing the impact of impairments and secondary complications.
— Maximizing participation, including wellness, quality of life, and inclusion in the community.
— Decreasing environmental barriers.
— Promoting personal safety and security.
​
A Dementia Care Specialty Program recognizes the individuality, preferences, strengths, and needs of the persons served and their families/support systems. It provides access to information, services, and resources to enhance the lives of the persons served and their families/support systems, facilitate engagement in meaningful activity, promote personal health and wellness, and preserve quality of life. The program demonstrates the commitment, capabilities, and resources to maintain itself as a specialized program for persons with dementia. Current research and evidence inform the implementation of service delivery models and strategies.”
