🗣️ Talking to a Parent Who Resists Help

Starting the conversation isn’t always easy 💚

Try:
• Leading with concern, not control
• Using “I” statements instead of “you need…”
• Framing care as support—not loss of independence
• Starting small (a few hours can make a difference)

These conversations take time—and patience.

Bridging the Distance 📱✨
Technology should never be a barrier to love. Our Parkwood caregivers love helping clients set up video calls to stay "face-to-face" with their families. Whether it’s seeing a grandchild’s smile or catching up over tea, these digital visits are vital for mental wellness and staying connected to what matters most. 🏠💚

🧠💚 As part of our Teepa Snow Positive Approach to Care® (PAC) Certified Dementia Champion Tier 1 training, we are continuing to build practical skills that improve everyday care.

Hand-Under-Hand® is a gentle supportive approach that helps guide movement and daily tasks in a way that promotes comfort, trust, and participation. It allows individuals living with dementia to feel more secure and involved while completing activities.

This approach helps us slow things down, reduce stress, and create more meaningful and respectful moments of care.

We are grateful for the opportunity to continue learning these approaches and are committed to using this knowledge to support better outcomes for the clients and families we serve each day. 💚

Saturday Morning Rituals ☕✨
Mental wellness often starts with a slow, intentional morning. At Parkwood, we love helping our clients start their weekend with a sense of calm—whether that’s a favorite tea, a crossword puzzle, or just watching the birds from the porch. These small rituals are the foundation of a peaceful mind. 🏠💚

A little care goes a long way 💚

One of our caregivers recently prepared a warm, home-cooked breakfast for a client. Supporting nutrition, comfort, and a calm start to the day.

It’s not just about breakfast… it’s about care in everyday moments 💚

Accessibility in Every Step 🌍✨

Today is Global Accessibility Awareness Day. At Parkwood, accessibility means removing barriers to independence. Whether we’re using assistive tools for arthritis or setting up technology for a video call, our caregivers ensure every client can access the moments that matter. We’re proud to build a world where everyone—regardless of ability—feels empowered and included. 🏠💚

🧠💚 We are continuing our Teepa Snow Positive Approach to Care® (PAC) Certified Dementia Champion Tier 1 journey.

The GEMS® model helps us understand that every person experiencing dementia is still shining, just in different ways. Each “gem” represents a stage of brain change and helps guide how we connect, communicate, and provide care. These gems are not labels - they are guides that help us meet people where they are, reduce stress, and focus on what they can still do.

We are proud to continue growing our knowledge through this training, and we remain committed to providing compassionate, person-centered care that supports both our clients and their families, as well as our caregivers. 💚
