Become a DAWN Dementia Trainer

Learn to teach the DAWN Method to families

Are you a certified DAWN Dementia Care Specialist? The prerequisite to becoming a teacher of the DAWN Method (a DAWN Trainer) is to first become certified as a DAWN Dementia Care Specialist (DDCS). If not, here is a link to purchase that certification course.

Because the DAWN Method is based on research-based practices, it is a revolutionary way of caring for someone who is losing cognitive skills. Unlike other dementia care training courses, you need to first become adept at using the DAWN techniques before you begin teaching them.

In becoming certified as a DDCS, you will become able to recognize and work with the specific cognitive skills kept and lost on the dementia journey. As a teacher of DAWN (DAWN Trainer), you will become skilled at leading families and care partners to recognize someone’s changing cognitive skills and the emotional needs that result when they are experiencing dementia.

If you wish to learn a different way to approaching dementia care–one that is more respectful, dignified and kind–I would like to share with you this revolutionary way of caring for someone who is losing cognitive skills.

In taking this course you’re not only learning how to do your job better, but agreeing to become part of a mission. Thank you for joining me.
