Better Dementia Care - Learning Teepa Snow's Positive Approach to Care

Better Dementia Care - Learning Teepa Snow's Positive Approach to Care

In this episode on the Living with Alzheimer's podcast, Christoph interviews Amanda Bulgarelli, Chief Operations Officer and Master Trainer for Positive Approach to Care, an organization focused on creating a more positive dementia care culture.

Amanda is the daughter of Teepa Snow, a nationally known dementia care specialist who founded the Positive Approach to Care (PAC) organization to help caregivers be more successful by using Teepa's therapeutic approaches and care techniques.

Christoph and Amanda discuss the issues that PAC is focused on solving for families facing dementia and dementia care needs. They talk about some care techniques PAC teaches, how caregivers can be more successful when they better understand how to enter the world of the person living with dementia, and how families can engage PAC to help them navigate the caregiving landscape.

They also discuss signs that may indicate cognitive decline versus normal aging, as well as two cognitive screening tests that individuals can use to help detect cognitive changes early. Those two tests are the Animal Fluency Test and the Trail Making Test.
