Are you involved in the care of an individual with dementia? I’d love to speak with you!
Dementia Journey Consultations are provided virtually via Zoom for one hour with Adria Thompson. After each consultation, you will receive a post-consultation review document covering all the in-depth topics discussed.
Dementia Journey offers a range of services to help you betterunderstand and care for people with dementia.
Far too often, the diagnosis of dementia is provided by a medical professional with no other follow up. Maybe you were given a pamphlet and then googled “dementia” on the way home from the appointment. There is so much information out there. How do you know where to start?
During our consultation, I will provide you with training in:
understanding the definition of dementia
the different types of dementia and how the most common symptoms
the stages of dementia and the amount of support each requires
common neurological impairments that impact a person with dementia’s behaviors and abilities
With everything I do, I want it to be functional. My advice and support will be practical and useful today. I also don’t just want to tell you what to do, but why. I don’t intend on you being reliant on me to provide care because I want you to understand the underlying problem so well that you can develop your own solutions to new problems on a daily basis.
During our consultation, I will provide you with:
tips and tricks for common problems of care such as issues during dressing, showering, taking medicine, eating, etc.
information regarding common products and equipment for individuals with dementia and how to determine if it is appropriate
training and demonstration of recommended communication techniques and approach strategies
Perhaps one of the scariest parts of dementia is the uncertainty of the future. You may have heard horror stories of other’s experiences and you lay in bed at night wondering if that will be the case for you and your loved one. Although we can never predict with certainty what lies ahead, I can help you plan for how to be prepared.
During our consulation, I will provide you with:
resources for how to obtain in home care and support in the community
guidance in understanding the different levels of care communities and the services they provide
recommendations for referrals for other medical providers that can be part of your care team
expectations of the progression of dementia
Absolutely. You will receive a zoom link after scheduling your consultation and you can share it with friends or family who would like to participate.
At this time, I am only doing 60-minute consultations. Follow me on social media @dementiajourney on Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok in order to keep up with any special offerings.
Any care partner can request a consultation! You may be a daughter, neighbor, brother, spouse, pastor, dog walker, or mailman of an individual with dementia. If dementia has touched your life in any way, I look forward to speaking with you.
During my caregiver consultations, I am not able to: (1) Diagnose dementia or any other medical condition, (2) Evaluate the individual with dementia, (3) Provide any speech therapy treatment, (4) Purchase equipment or devices, or (5) Bill insurance.
Please send me an email! If you have a special circumstance or concern that you would like to make sure I can speak to, I would love to be able to discuss that with you. You can email me at info@dementiajourney.io or click “Contact Me” on my website.
