Roundtable Discussion Groups
The TimeSlips Project created a model for two-hour roundtable discussions whose aims are to:
- To generate discussion about how to more fully integrate the creative arts into personal and professional care for people with dementia.
- To bring together people whose associations with dementia care differ widely, from administrators to personal caregivers, from funders to students of social work and art therapy.
- To capitalize on the momentum of the meeting by suggesting future directions for those interested in arts and dementia care, and by following up with a synopsis of the proceedings mailed to all attendees.
Questions we address include:
- Do we find the arts valuable in dementia care?
- How/why?
- What are the obstacles to implementing the arts in dementia care?
- How might these obstacles be overcome?
