Strength-based dementia care works best when everyone in your loved one’s life is using the same approach. Additionally, dementia-related behaviors are more easily resolved if caregivers can respond appropriately before habits become ingrained.

In developing the DAWN Method, the remarkable Judy Cornish has made it possible for those experiencing Dementia/Alzheimer’s to stay in their own homes. As a Social Worker and volunteer for Hospice, I have seen firsthand the positive effects on both the patient and the family/caregiver when one has the resources to be in the comforts of home. After learning the 7 steps of the DAWN Method I was able to put into practice Judy’s approach.
“When a family member/caregiver begins to understand the emotions and feelings their loved one is experiencing, they are then open to learn the DAWN Method. This method teaches and provides the guidance needed to convey a more secure, relaxed and loving atmosphere. I have seen amazing results using this Method, families feeling totally overwhelmed to then creating and cherishing loving moments together. I thank Judy for all her time and endless research in developing the DAWN Method and then her willingness to teach and share her method. Many families will benefit greatly from the DAWN Method.”

This class is super! There’s a lot of wonderful information that will help each caregiver learn how to give life back to their LO by using the skills that are provided! It’s a positive way to enact with your LO and to maybe start to have a few more stress free days with them and to help give you, as their caregiver, a solid foundation in which to work with.

In my years-long caregiving journey I’ve never felt so supported as when I enrolled in the DAWN Dementia Care Class taught by Judy Cornish. Her expertise and ability to communicate in an easy to understand way are as important as the method itself. I appreciate the real life examples she uses and her encouraging manner that bring an added dimension to caregiving, that of joy. I cannot say enough good about Judy Cornish or the DAWN method she has created. Both you, and the one you’re giving care to, will benefit greatly by taking this class. It’s made all the difference for me.

The DAWN Method of dementia care training has been the most meaningful and valuable learning experience in my 15 year journey of taking care of my mother – now 101 years old. The didactic learning regarding ‘how dementia shows up’ and the ‘why’ of behaviors we observe in our loved one was not only informative but very empowering. The addition of the tools Judy taught to support her strength-based, personalized approach to compassionate dementia care not only changed my attitude towards caregiving by reducing stress and providing hope, resulting in a blessing for both of us during this journey. Thank you, Judy, for your compassion, care, the individual support we received, your brilliant insights in this area, and above all, your perseverance to do the work needed to develop this amazing, lifesaving caregiver training program!
