In this webinar from our Best Life Dementia Series, Maggie Calkins, president of Innovative Designs in Environments for an Aging Society (IDEAS) Institute, explores the therapeutic potential of the environment and its impact on people living with dementia (PLWD). Nationally recognized as a creative and dynamic leader, trainer, and researcher in the field of environments for elders, Maggie discusses techniques to make environments more dementia-friendly.

In addition, she offers an overview of how to integrate the physical environment, care practices, and residents’ needs into a complementary, holistic approach to dementia care.
