What is Dementia Live®

Dementia Live® is an experience that immerses participants into what life might be like living with cognitive impairment and sensory change. Utilizing specialized gear that simulates dementia specific changes that include altered eyesight, hearing and tactile sensation, this safe experience is a powerful and effective tool to strengthen care partner understanding of and empathy for residents. Gaining a first-hand understanding of anxiety, isolation, frustration, confusion, and more, Dementia Live uniquely walks participants from the “AHA” moment to empowering care partners with tools to improve communication, care processes, relationship building and the environment.

Our goal is to help create cutting-edge dementia care by system- wide integration of Dementia Live®. We empower and license communities, agencies and associations to implement the Dementia Live® program for staff training, family engagement, and community education.
