Community and Educational Programs
“A Day In the Life” Aging Hands-On Simulation Workshop – Dementia & physical age-related challenges.
Families, caregivers and professionals can reach a deeper level of understanding by spending some time “walking in their care recipients or clients shoes.” Activities mimic what it is like to feel confused, frustrated, isolated and more. Participants will gain compassion and empathy.
These simulation exercises help participants understand age-related health challenges faced by the older people they serve. These include neuropathy, hearing loss, vision loss, language and cognitive impairment, mobility and balance. Join us as we share experiences with peers to help you process lessons learned in a meaningful, memorable way. What is it like to live every day as an older adult facing one or more common, age-related health challenges? During the engaging, active learning sessions, participants break into small groups for simulation exercises designed to provide insight into this important question. After the “hands-on” experiences, they gather to discuss how such challenges may impact an elder’s autonomy and ability to live independently.
These workshops are open and free to the community thanks to the funding from our community partners. Please RSVP by filling out the online form at bottom of this page.
If you have an organization, group of individuals, work place, neighborhood, etc. that would like us to bring our “A Day in the Life” experience to you, please contact us at info@alohatoaging.org.
