Adult Day Care for Those Affected by Alzheimer’s Disease with Scott Tarde

800 536 Joe Casciani PhD

This episode of the Living to 100 Club Radio show explores adult day care programs, and the support, education, and crisis management provided to families whose loved ones have Alzheimer’s disease or a related dementia. Adult day care programs offer structured therapeutic activities, such as cognitive stimulation and socialization for seniors with a dementing disorder in safe, secure environments. They also offer families needed respite, and opportunities to exchange advice, solutions, and community resources with other caregivers. Our guest, Scott Tarde, CEO of the George Glenner Alzheimer’s Family Center, will be talking about their Town Square model. This care model immerses participants in settings like a barber and beauty shop, diner, pet store, museum, even an auto repair garage, that trigger earlier, better-preserved memories and reduce agitation and irritability. Join us and learn more about innovative Town Square model that is breaking new ground for adult day care centers.
