I'm in my second semester of the Bachelor of Dementia care and it is proving to be wonderful. Lots of hard work but definately worth it. There is a course called "MOOC" which is a self paced introduction to the course and would be a great start for anyone looking at doing it.

Hi, I did a scent memory session with Dementia residents. Old time smells such as Old Spice, Fishermans Friends, Lavendar Talc, 4711 Perfume!! It was great and got some old memories back the surface simply by smelling.
I am so grateful for this site. It really is a great help to me as a new Activity Assistant. It's good to know that I always have an activity ready and effective. I so appreciate you.
