Carer To CEO: Transforming Dementia Care For CQC Success - Special Podcast

Care Home Management Season 7 Episode 6

Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) is the world's leading non-drug intervention for dementia, proven to delay cognitive decline by 4-6 months.

In this special podcast we talk to specialist Brain+ and its CEO Devika Wood, who explains how this digital solution is helping people living with dementia.

The therapy is delivered through multimodal group therapy, involving 5-8 residents, and recommended to be conducted twice a week over seven weeks.

CST can improve communication, reduce aggression and anxiety, and improve someone's mood.

Devika provides an example of a session focused on childhood memories, involving residents discussing games and sparking conversations.
