Person-Centered Care Model
Personalized Care to Nurture the Spirit
Our specialized and state-approved dementia care training program goes beyond basic requirements and equips caregivers with the expert knowledge needed to get to the heart of the matter.
Each of our dementia trainers has been carefully selected and is a graduate of our company’s Train the Trainer program facilitated by a certified dementia consultant. Continually learning new techniques in caregiving for those living with dementia, our trainers provide caregivers with the tools needed to establish heart to heart connections through person-centered care.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE WITH PERSON-CENTERED CARE
When seniors transition from their home to a community home, the loss of independence and being out of their comfort zone can be difficult. To make the switch easier, our philosophy encourages choice, purpose, and meaning in residents’ lives – helping them to feel valued. Our passionate caregivers work daily to build a trusted rapport with residents though encouragement, praise, conversation, and by getting to know each person – their personality, children, careers, likes, and dislikes.
We focus on building upon the strengths and abilities residents have and encourage them to be as independent as possible – from putting on a shoe to outdoor nature walks or playing piano. No matter the level of cognition or physical ability, we provide meaningful activities, love, and cognitive stimulation that help our residents be the best version of themselves. With Encore’s person-centered care, residents will live an improved quality of life filled with self-respect and personal connections.
