This online course on Cognitively-Conscious Programming for Dementia acts as a vehicle to disseminate my Occupational Therapy doctoral capstone in accordance with the Drake University Occupational Therapy program and Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE) standards. The capstone project and experience were completed in a multi-level long-term care facility in Iowa over the course of three months, and they are the culmination of my three years of occupational therapy education. You’ll enjoy this course if you have a passion for working with the geriatric population – specifically those who are living with dementia. This population can often be overlooked; they are vulnerable to occupational injustice, stigmatization, and underappreciation. The project detailed in this course is evidence-based and intended to promote effective, appropriate, and meaningful social and leisure participation for individuals with dementia. As an occupational therapy student, my aim was to increase the physical, mental, and spiritual health and wellness of individuals living in long-term care. A variety of educational resources as well as simple, low-cost activity templates that I have developed are included throughout the course for you to enjoy! I hope you can hop in, learn about cognitively-conscious programming, and take away practical resources and ideas to apply in your practice.
