Thanks for sharing this video.
What an amazing program!! We need these programs in all aged homes.
Thank you to everyone involved in making this video! The passion, especially of Elizabeth, is so contagious. Thank you for all the lives you have made better - the full extend of which you will probably never know this side of heaven.
Sounds like hopeful idea, giving elerly purpose and structure and encouraging relationships, praise Jesus,♥️amen to having purposeful jobs, what adults do ♥️
Thank you for making the commitment to transforming the living environment to better meet the needs of and honor the capabilities of all residents.
Well done. Ive been working 25 years in activities/ lifestyle. You hit the nail on the head when you stated...the challenge has been the staff. The problem isn't the residents. Ive always said the more we normalise the environment and routine etc..the more settled people feel within their environment and self. Having something to do, someone to do it with and something to look forward to has always been my philosophy. However Montessori is seen by many as childish and ....is extremely misunderstood. Hopefully more organisations will adopt this method...but everyone needs to on board, the staff, families, management etc etc. ☺️thanks for sharing! Oh and my pet hate in aged care...it's half an hr to morning tea you have to wait for a coffee!!!!
This is all good..wonderful..but......here comes the but......I have patients that can’t function this well...they can’t remember to eat..actually not know what food is...a fork...have lost the ability to swallow..dementia is not only a memory loss condition..they can’t walk...wheel their own wheelchair...don’t know that they have a bowel movement...and these people need activities to distract them through the day also...are you handling these very progressed dementia patient? If so can you show videos on how you handle them
Montessori method for young children and aged people is very useful to motivate them.
Será existe este método no Brasil?
A very pleasant job through Montessori.
Montessori is very interesting kind of program. I am starting Montessori session with Elderly suffer with Dementia.
Hi, adele,
You are working in nursing home and using mintossori method? There is any on line courses for thats
Thanks a lot.
Such a wonderful video! So informative for me. I am going into a new role of activity co ordinating in a dementia care home and I am able to incorporate some of these ideas into my job x
Yes, this is happening in the U.S. In Portland, Oregon, there is a Montessori program in an assisted living facility. Though this isn't the exact program that is presented in this U tube film, it has some similarities and should be interesting to those who are inspired by this program in Australia. I would love to talk to anyone about it and share the information about the program. We started this program in 1998 and it is still going today. Goes to show you that Montessori works for everyone!!
I would love to talk to you about how to implement this program at my facility.
This is amazing, quite adorable too! :)
Montessori principles - super! Like idea of helping, but what about health rules of using gloves and changing them. Will health rules allow them to set tables, peel vegetables or folding clothes (but they could do their own) ?
Does anyone know if this is happening in the USA? This is one of the most beautiful films I have ever seen. Thank you to all those involved who have put this together.
Which Aged Care facilities in Melbourne have the Montessouri Method?
