Montessori caring is a system of education aimed at people living with dementia, who seek to develop natural interest and activities in the same manner and behavior as they used to prior to cognitive decline. I feel incredibly lucky and grateful that I have been part of this caring unit in Memory Support. Our residents can partake in any activities like jigsaw puzzles, quiz, singing etc. as their preference with supervision or support is required. It is beautiful to see.
