Virtual Dementia Tour

Your Window Into Their World

While we continue to live in a world without a cure to Alzheimer’s Disease, the 6th leading cause of death in the United States, we need to find a way to make life with the disease more livable.

As part of the GWEP grant, several Center staff members have been trained to deliver the Virtual Dementia Tour (VDT), an evidence-based product of Second Wind Dreams, free of cost to agencies across Colorado. The Virtual Dementia Tour is a scientifically proven method that builds sensitivity and awareness in individuals caring for those with dementia by temporarily altering participants’ physical and sensory abilities. This evidence-based program simulates changes associated with cognitive decline. Geriatric specialist, P.K. Beville authored and created the VDT as her post-graduate work. This patented program offers hope by providing practical ways to create an environment that supports the disease and increases understanding.
