Relearn and Sharpen Skills

Our CBS News featured therapy has helped thousands of individuals with dementia increase their independence by assisting them with relearning and sharpening skills. We do this through a process known as Errorless Learning (EL). As the name implies, Errorless Learning prevents errors that can cause many issues, including low self-esteem, anxiety, and frustration, all of which affect the learning process.

In this teaching method, the difficulty of an activity is carefully monitored and slowly increased as the client becomes more proficient. Some of the skills we’ve helped individuals relearn and become more adept at include:

• Writing

• Reading

• Simple arithmetic

• Color and number identification

• Feeding

• Using a phone
