Is your business dementia-friendly? Contact us and schedule a staff training session. We offer staff education for our sponsors. To find out how to be a sponsor email us at help@dementiatogether.org
Business education is usually implemented on site in 1-4 hours, depending on the type of business, allowing for questions and time to discuss specific issues relevant to the business with the goals of:
- increasing awareness of the signs of dementia
- knowing concrete strategies to use in communicating effectively with people living with cognitive impairment
- identifying how to locate resources and assistance for themselves and individuals living with dementia
Businesses such as stores, banks, libraries, restaurants, faith communities, schools, hospitals, clinics, health clubs, government agencies, emergency services, and service organizations participating in the dementia awareness education, receive recognition and a window decal to display at the entrance to their facility. Ongoing education/resources will also be provided as needed.
