Cheryl Blanchard, LMSW, CCM joined the meeting for a special training in Dementia Redirection. She is a Certified Dementia Care Specialist and the Middle Tennessee Regional Director for Alzheimer\u2019s Tennessee. She also invited the Caregivers and Office Staff to participate in the Williamson County Walk to Make Alzheimer’s a Memory 2022 on Saturday, May 14th<\/strong><\/em>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A large part of redirecting someone with Dementia includes proving purposeful activities for the person to participate in. Haley Johnson, Owner, shared ideas the Caregivers could use to build a traveling activity kit for their clients and\/or other activities they could do together. Each Caregiver went home with a coloring book or word search to begin their activity kit and to share in the fun with their clients! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the meeting, Caregivers were recognized for their Year of Service Anniversaries, Caregivers of the Month, and Superlatives. In light of our Spirit Day, there were an abundance of purple snacks, photo booth props, and giveaways! Lead Caregiver, Kelly Leftwich, even handmade purple pompoms to share! They concluded with a raffle of Touching Hearts gear, a full activity kit, and VISA and restaurant gift cards. The photo booth was a new addition and a big hit with everyone as well! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
