Dementia-Aware Care at Broadview

At Broadview Assisted Living, we understand the unique challenges that come with caring for loved ones with dementia. To ensure our staff is equipped with the best tools and knowledge we have adopted Laura Wayman's A Loving Approach to Dementia Care, published by John Hopkins University Press. A Loving Approach to Dementia Care is more than just a guide; it is a compassionate and practical framework designed to transform the caregiving experience. Wayman emphasizes the importance of meaningful connections, effective communication, and empathetic responses in her curriculum.

Supporting Families & The Community

Broadview Assisted Living offers virtual calls with Laura Wayman throughout the year, providing valuable insights and guidance on dementia care as well as in-person sessions that are open to the public. These sessions help families stay connected and informed about practical resources for supporting their loved ones. Contact us to learn more about joining an in-person session with Laura.
