Training for Practitioners and Caregivers
More InformationWhile we await a cure for Alzheimer’s disease, there are still unmet challenges and needs experienced by people with dementia.
We envision a new paradigm of care that considers those diagnosed to be normal people with neurological disabilities.
By doing so, their abilities, interests, and choices will be respected, encouraged, and maximized.
We consider people with the condition as essential authors in the chain of decisions.
Each accompaniment is a field of research and considering it as such increases the sum of knowledge.

“It was such a beneficial two days for all our staff. A dynamic presentation by Mr. Norris, concrete examples related to our reality, and the importance of considering this clientele as it deserves”
“Following this training, the Domaine Saint-Dominique has set up a “Montessori Method” committee and will rigorously apply all the notions related to this marvelous method as of 2022.”
“This training really went beyond my expectations. The adapted Montessori method is much more than a set of techniques and activities that can be easily integrated into the daily life of our residents.”
“It is a wind of change in the vision, understanding and support of people with Alzheimer’s disease and other cognitive disorders.”
“The case studies and the videos were really appreciated. The sharing of experiences with the other people registered in the course is really interesting. I wish that the people who work in the field had more cases to tell.”
“The training has given me a lot: the understanding of the disease, the way to intervene more adequately, the importance of putting oneself in their reality, the importance of doing actions that respect the acquired skills and the maintenance of the autonomy that remains.”
