We offered staff and community members the opportunity to experience Dementia Live®, an immersive glimpse into what everyday life can feel like for someone living with dementia. What we captured was the greater impact: powerful reactions, new perspectives, and reflections on how this experience may change the way participants show up, connect, and provide care for residents.

Dementia Live® is powered by AGE-u-cate Training Institute.

You'll walk away with real tools for making your visits together more comfortable and connected. RSVP to Mindy Owens at [email protected] or 239-334-2500 by Friday, October 9, 2026.

Last day to RSVP!
When you don't know how your loved one experiences the world, every visit can feel like guesswork. Dementia Live® changes that. You’ll walk out of this immersive session with practical ways to communicate, more patience for the hard moments, and the relief of finally understanding what's happening on the other side.

AJ Cipperly, Vice President of Memory Care for The Arbor Company, will also be here throughout the day to talk through your questions — including the ones that are hard to say out loud.

Sessions are 30 minutes and run all afternoon. Reserve your spot by Monday, August 31 by contacting Mindy Owens at [email protected] or (239) 334-2500.
