We proudly celebrated Dementia and Alzheimer’s Education Week here at The Phoenix at Lake Lanier with a full week dedicated to learning, growth, and awareness. We began the week on Monday with an educational presentation on Dementia led by the wonderful Kayla Hubbard with Appalachian Hospice. This session was open to all staff and family members and provided valuable insight into understanding Dementia and how we can better support those we serve. On Thursday, our team members participated in the Virtual Dementia Tour, followed by an additional tour on Friday that was open to our families and community members. The impact of this experience is truly beyond compare. The Virtual Dementia Tour offers a powerful perspective into the daily experience individuals living with Dementia may face, fostering greater empathy, patience, and understanding. Our community had a total of 27 participants for this event. Our hope is that every person who participated walked away with deeper knowledge, a renewed perspective, and an even stronger commitment to compassionate care. We are grateful to everyone who joined us in making this week so meaningful.
