In today's fast-paced world, you need more
than just information. You need insights that will make a real difference to
your entire experience of dementia. At Dementia Care Australia, we know
how to enable both you and people with dementia to thrive.
We have
developed a simple, practical, well-researched and proven approach to dementia
care, which works as well at home as it does in an aged care facility. It
not only makes an immediate difference with day-to-day care but, over the long term,
creates a culture in which people with dementia can thrive. We call this the Spark of Life Approach.
While our website contains plenty of
free and valuable information you can put to use straight away, you
don't need to do it on your own. The real benefits come through Spark of Life
Membership. The insights you gain from your membership will have a
profound effect on your attitude to dementia and on your every interaction with
the person who has dementia.
For the
home carer there
are simple solutions to daily challenges, practical ways to open up
communication, and the chance for a new understanding in your
relationship. Happier people are easier to care for, which results in increased carer motivation and satisfaction.
For the professional carer there are tools, solutions, ideas, and inspiration to vastly improve your daily working environment. These include guides, tips and the chance to ask us questions on the
specific issues and challenges you face in caring for people with dementia.
For aged care facilities this approach can liberate resources, dissolve
difficult behaviour, lift staff morale, streamline care plans, support
accreditation and enhance the smooth running of any facility.
Developed over 14 years by Dementia Care Australia, under the guidance of Jane Verity, the Spark of Life Approach
has been adopted by carers and aged care facilities throughout the world with
outstanding results.
