Enhancing In-Home Dementia Care Through Reminiscence-Based Interventions
This case study examines the efforts of Jann’e Gutierrez, the owner of Always Best Care Senior Services, to enhance dementia care within her in-home care organization. Jann’e’s goal was to find effective ways to engage clients living with moderate to advanced dementia. After attending a spotlight event featuring Memory Lane Games, a reminiscence-focused digital platform, Jann’e decided to incorporate it into her caregiving practices. She aimed to use the games to stimulate conversations and evoke positive memories, thereby improving the quality of life for her clients.
Jann’e introduced Memory Lane Games across Always Best Care by equipping caregivers with tablets loaded with the app, enabling them to integrate the games into home visits. The case study focuses on two clients, Mrs. P and Mrs. J, highlighting how the intervention impacted their engagement and
interactions.
