Marc’s inspiring journey as a resident attendant – An approach focused on individual needs
Let me tell you about the inspiring journey of our resident attendant Marc, who has developed a close relationship with our resident Mr. Dupont—a man living with Alzheimer’s disease. Over time, and thanks to Mr. Dupont’s life story document outlining his preferences, interests and habits, Marc got well acquainted with the resident and made a special connection with him.
Rather than focusing solely on basic tasks, Marc pays special attention to Mr. Dupont’s unique needs. He relies on nonverbal communication techniques adapted to the progression of the disease to connect with the resident and form a bond of trust. Marc is well aware that while words may vanish from Mr. Dupont’s memory, his emotions and sensations will remain. Hence, he makes sure every interaction between them is compassionate and respectful.
Personalized activities to stimulate the memory – A typical week in a resident’s life
Marc uses personalized occupational activities to jog Mr. Dupont’s memory. He suggests memory games, puzzles and sensory activities to spark the resident’s interest and foster engagement. Aside from the cognitive benefits, these activities also give Mr. Dupont a sense of accomplishment and enjoyment.
Caring staff members who create a safe environment – What sets us apart? Our approach.
The caring staff members at Selena Residence are a source of comfort for Mr. Dupont. He knows he can count on them to provide a safe environment where he can feel at home. Every smile, word of encouragement and kind gesture is a hallmark of our staff’s approach. Thanks to their reassuring presence, Mr. Dupont can enjoy a feeling of safety that melts away his worries and anxiety.
Improving quality of life through a global approach
