The workshop is part of ComForCare's move to address the rising need for dementia care in Fairfield and New Haven Counties. ComForCare of Fairfield, CT is a premier provider of in-home care. They have announced a new approach to providing care to those having symptoms of dementia. Through their DementiaWise certification, ComForCare caregivers are trained in a special curriculum to develop understanding and skills in the most effective care techniques.
One of the programs under DementiaWise is Joyful Memories®️ – a music program that brings memories to life through music recognition. According to the Mayo Clinic, music can relieve stress, reduce anxiety and depression, and reduce agitation.
