On Wednesday, May 8th at 3 PM, in a session titled "Dementia 360: Seeing the Condition from All Perspectives," Snow will explore the experiences and needs of those living with dementia, their caregivers and family members, professional staff, support staff, friends, regulators, and more. Snow's guidance will help equip family members and caregivers alike to deliver person-centered care, enriching the quality of life for those living with dementia.

Moreover, Snow will personally provide specialized techniques to enhance the skills of Maplewood's Memory Care leadership team. Efforts like these aim to promote understanding and enable senior living providers like Maplewood to optimize environments for residents.

Her work aligns seamlessly with Maplewood's unwavering commitment to advancing memory care excellence through partnerships, staff and resident education, and continuous improvement.

In 2021, their community at Stony Hill, Connecticut's first fully dedicated Memory Care community, earned the prestigious Purple Flag accreditation for meeting the highest standards in supporting individuals with Alzheimer's and other dementias.
