“Seeing GEMS®, Not Just Loss” workshop helps learners understand the GEMS® Model developed by Teepa Snow. This model is based on the Allen cognitive scale and focuses on what is retained for people living with dementia instead of only focusing on what is lost. In identifying retained skills and abilities, learners will be able to provide the right level of support and assistance in care with people in different ability states. By understanding GEMS States, we can learn to provide the best care and setting so that everyone can shine.

This full-day workshop is designed for any staff or other professional who provides care and support to people living with dementia. This course is eligible for 6 CME hours.

Utilizing Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Care® (PAC) this workshop will emphasize the value of matching helping behaviors to the person’s needs and retained abilities to promote a better sense of control and self-direction, and addresses typical issues that occur throughout the progression of dementia. Learners attending this session will practice the Positive Approach to Care’s care partnering techniques, including Positive Physical Approach™ (PPA) and Hand-under-Hand® (HuH). These newly learned skills will support care partners in enhancing their interactions with patients living with dementia and support a shift from simply ‘dealing with the behaviors’ to creating a positive and caring dementia-competent environment. 

The Virtual Dementia Tour® (VDT) is an experiential training program, designed for use by care giving facilities and community organizations to help identify with and understand behaviors and needs of people living with dementia. It has been used to train the staff at hospitals, home care agencies, hospices, and colleges and universities. (1.5 CME for RNs)
