What is The Virtual Dementia Tour program?

Imagine yourself in a fair funhouse. You step inside as well as a lights go dim. You can hardly see what's in front of we so we strech out your arms to feel your approach along a walls, but this is no use.....By Bob DeMarco


The Virtual Dementia Tour is a, hands-on, experiential apparatus pack created for any a single seeking to assimilate a physical as well as mental hurdles of those pang from Alzheimer's as well as dementia.

In short, it is a apparatus which gives we a form of dementia, as well as allows we to knowledge what it is similar to to be pang from dementia. This is a commutation tool. A apparatus designed to let we feel as well as assimilate what your loved a single competence be feeling similar to during any point in time. As such, it is designed to help we urge communication by giving we a knowledge of dementia.

The vital claim is which a Virtual Dementia Tour gives we a window "into their world". I attempted it. It works.

Interestingly, I believe this apparatus would work best if it were tested by siblings as well as family groups of a ONE -- a Alzheimer's caregiver. This would give any alien a good bargain of a behaviors which Alzheimer's caregivers see, face, as well as understanding with all day prolonged every day of a week. Key difference here -- consolation for a caregiver, sympathy for a person pang from Alzheimer's disease.

While we do a Virtual Dementia Tour we turn completely irrational as well as disconcerted. Your brain just won't do what we wish it to do. Imagine that.

The practical insanity module was developed by P. K. Beville of Second Wind Dreams. Second Wind Dreams focuses upon those vital in eldercare communities or in hospice care.

The Virtual Dementia Tour was featured upon ABCs Nightline in July. They have an glorious article as well as a video where Primetime's Cynthia McFadden participates in a experiment. She describes a knowledge as "very humbling". To read as well as watch go here.

To revisit Second Wind Dreams go here.

I also wish to thank P.K. Beville for her continued await as well as frequent mentions of a Alzheimer's Reading Room.
