The innovative Early Memory Loss (EML) program was established in response to a significant gap in supportive services available for people recently diagnosed with memory loss. This engaging, educational service model allows adults to be productive, involved members of the community and emphasizes programming that enhances independence.
EML programs also provide the opportunity to learn practical skills along with peers in a non-threatening group setting. Memory enhancement and compensatory skill building are central elements in this consumer-directed program. Other components of the EML program are group problem-solving, socialization, peer support, exercise, and camaraderie.
This model has been replicated around the country in response to the growing population of people seeking both earlier diagnosis and resources to meet their unique needs. The Group Respite model consists of enjoyable activities that build on the strengths and abilities of participants. The program also provides access to support groups, information and referral, counseling, training, and education for caregivers.
With a nationwide network of programs providing quality respite services, the BNGRP demonstrates that this cost-effective, social model day program successfully addresses the special needs of people with dementia and family caregivers.
