May 8 for Educational Sessions with
Teepa Snow
BETHEL,
Conn., April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Maplewood
Senior Living, a leading national provider of senior living
residences with 16 communities across the Northeast and
Ohio, is honored to host Teepa
Snow, the acclaimed occupational therapist, leading educator, and
dementia care expert, for a full day of specialized training,
resident-facing education, and open-to-the-community learning.
Snow's visit is part of Maplewood's ongoing monthly series titled
"Candid Conversations," designed to provide residents, families,
and guests with a safe and supportive space to participate in
meaningful conversations about the complexities and challenges of
dementia.
On Wednesday, May 8th at 3
PM, in a session titled "Dementia 360: Seeing the
Condition from All Perspectives," Snow will explore the experiences
and needs of those living with dementia, their caregivers and
family members, professional staff, support staff, friends,
regulators, and more. Snow's guidance will help equip family
members and caregivers alike to deliver person-centered care,
enriching the quality of life for those living with dementia.
Moreover, Snow will personally provide specialized techniques to
enhance the skills of Maplewood's
Memory Care leadership team. Efforts like these aim to promote
understanding and enable senior living providers like Maplewood to optimize environments for
residents.
Her work aligns seamlessly with Maplewood's unwavering commitment to advancing
memory care excellence through partnerships, staff and resident
education, and continuous improvement.
"We are honored to host Teepa Snow, a true leader in dementia
care and education," said Lauren
Stowell, Maplewood at Stony
Hill's Executive Director. Her expertise and passion for supporting
families impacted by this disease are unmatched. We look forward to
learning from Teepa and are excited to open this rare opportunity,
free of charge, to our residents' families and the greater
community hungry for guidance in caring for their loved ones."
The collaboration with Teepa Snow is Maplewood's latest effort in an over
decade-long dedication to innovation in memory care. In 2021, their
community at Stony Hill, Connecticut's first fully dedicated Memory
Care community, earned the prestigious Purple Flag accreditation
for meeting the highest standards in supporting individuals with
Alzheimer's and other dementias.
"We look forward to equipping our teams with additional skills
and insights to continue providing the very best care and quality
of life for our memory care residents," said Brian Geyser, Vice
