Celebrate Dementia Care Validation Week: Meet Me Where I Am

Poet’s Walk Warrenton, a dedicated Memory Care community, is proud to celebrate the First Annual Validation Week, August 17–23.

Held in partnership with the Validation Training Institute, Validation Week recognizes compassion and person-centered dementia care. Centered around “Meet Me Where I Am,” the week encourages caregivers and families to listen, understand, and validate each person’s feelings.

Throughout the week, Poet’s Walk Warrenton will host activities that celebrate residents’ life stories and help families learn more about Validation.

Through Priority Life Care’s Along the Journey philosophy, Validation helps caregivers build relationships and create moments of trust, comfort, and connection.

My brother and I had a tour of Poet's walk recently. K.C. was very helpful to us. She took so much time with me on the phone before the tour. She was so supportive of our sadness and worry about our Mom. We are thankful to her for her help and really thoughtfullness.

Poet's Walk has been incredible. Cindy Murphy has been such a blessing to my whole family. From the very start she has always been there for me and my loved ones. If I have any questions or concerns big or small she is right there to do all that she can to help. She is not the only person working at Poet's Walk, which can cause concern when you are leaving a family member in a care facility and don't know if all of the staff will be as wonderful as the rest. Well Cindy has made sure that her staff knows everything that I have shared with her about my grandfather and what he needs to feel at home. We unfortunately had to place him somewhere prior to Poet's Walk and the experience was awful, so my family and I have seen what a difference the propper care can make. Poet's Walk has state of the art technology, trained staff, is clean, beautiful, and SAFE. Cindy and her staff treat my grandfather, and also the rest of my family, as if we are a part of theirs. It is heartwarming to see someone like Cindy making a facility like this feel like home for the residents and their families. Poet's Walk has exceeded our expectations. Without Cindy, I would not have the peace of mind that I do every day. I thank her and everyone at Poet's Walk.

Dissatisfied with Mom's prior home...we researched and found Poet's Walk in Warrenton. From day one Carol Rose made her feel like she was home and has served as a constant conduit of information on days we were unable to be there. The entire team; from Terry out front, to Jodi, Tracy and their staff have made us comfortable knowing Mom is well cared for. We have recommended Poet's Walk to friends who are now able experience what do with their loved ones. I Highly recommend this place and Carol Rose's willingness to go above and beyond to care for her residents.
