GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOTV)- For decades, Clark Retirement has spearheaded dementia care for aging adults in West Michigan. What separates Clark from other senior care facilities is that its staff treats residents experiencing dementia as individuals and considers each person’s specific needs.

Research shows 64% of residents in skilled nursing facilities have dementia, and Clark Retirement launched a Core Life Dementia Care Training Program to keep residents happy, engaged and enriched in everyday life!

Renee Parham, Clark Life enrichment & dementia manager, discusses the core dementia training program, shares the program origins and lists the benefits.
