Senior living leaders today face a workforce landscape shaped by rising acuity, increasing dementia prevalence, and unprecedented staffing pressures. Dementia care is emotionally demanding, operationally complex, and deeply tied to staff retention. As the number of people living with dementia continues to grow, organizations that treat dementia education as a strategic workforce investment — not just a care initiative — are seeing measurable improvements in culture, confidence, and consistency. Dementia education is no longer optional. It is a workforce strategy that strengthens onboarding, reduces turnover, and builds a resilient, empathy-driven care culture.

Dementia is no longer a challenge limited to memory care neighborhoods or clinical settings. It is a community‑wide issue—one that touches families, workplaces, faith communities, first responders, transportation systems, and local businesses. With more than 55 million people worldwide living with dementia and millions more providing care, communities need tools that move people from awareness to meaningful action.

Dementia Live is emerging as one of the most powerful catalysts for that shift.
