About the Spark of Life

Spark of Life is a simple, well researched approach for enhancing the lives of people with dementia. It's a simple step-by-step guided approach which boosts quality of life for both the carer and the person with dementia. It works equally well in the home as in an aged care facility.

Spark of Life provides the practical 'how to' combined with the vital personal and emotional support needed by both the person with dementia and their carer. It has been devised by Jane Verity through her experience with Person Centered Care and the Eden Alternative. Her Spark of Life Approach has been adopted in the US, Scandinavia, Europe and Australia, with outstanding results.
