Philosophy
A dementia specific program must meet the special needs of
the individuals who reside within the community. Additionally, the program must
consider the staff, residents, and the family members of the residents. ACA
believes in the “partnership model of care” where every program element includes
benefits for each of the “partners” of the caregiving experience.
A special program should include the following key components:
◊ Specialized Environment
◊ Dementia Capable Staff
◊ Appropriate Resident Services
◊ Resident -Centered Care
◊ Staff and Family Resources & Involvement
◊ Community Involvement
◊ Continuous Quality in the realm of Assisted Living
The “perfect model of care” is unfolding and every new dementia care program is
an opportunity for education, enlightenment, and improvement. The challenge is
to translate a resident-centered philosophy into action. ACA can provide the
experience and expertise customized to meet your needs.
