Part 2: Meaningful Engagement in Dementia Care with Maurie Voisey-Barlin

In Part 2 of our conversation with Maurie Voisey-Barlin, we're reminded that every person has a story needing to be heard, especially those with dementia. On this episode, we discuss Maurie's person-centred approach, celebrating the power of connection and the art of relationship-centred care. 

This conversation unveils the layers of nuanced interaction essential to reach someone's core, even when memories fade. Maurie shares about mischief, finding joy in the playful and the routine, as well as how his 'satellite' technique demonstrates that circling around can lead to a heartfelt connection. Each story shared is a lesson in patience, respect, and the personal touch that turns caregiving into an art form.

Maurie's tales illustrate the profound impact of tailored communication and genuine understanding. This episode is not just a discussion; it's an invitation to witness the transformation that occurs when we truly engage with the hearts and minds of people living with dementia.
