A hospital-university collaboration has created an innovative learning Academy for persons living with dementia. Authors propose essential foundations for creating a different culture of dementia care: a home-like, judgement free place; a relational space focused on artistic expression and discovery; and, the marriage of learning with a deep respect for difference and growth. An array of challenges and insights highlight the commitments required to create and sustain real change. Partnerships with community organizations and schools merged relational philosophy-based research, teaching-learning, and art to generate new patterns of innovative practices. The commitment of the Academy is to relational arts-based inquiry focused on relationships, life enrichment, and engagement in a space where everyone thrives.
一家医院与大学合作,为痴呆症患者创建了一个创新学习学院。作者提出了创建痴呆症护理新文化的基本基础:一个像家一样、没有评判的地方;一个以艺术表达和发现为重点的关系空间;以及将学习与对差异和成长的深深尊重相结合。一系列的挑战和见解突出了创建和维持真正变革所需的承诺。与社区组织和学校的合作融合了基于关系的哲学研究、教学-学习和艺术,以产生创新实践的新模式。该学院的承诺是关注关系、丰富生活和在每个人都茁壮成长的空间中参与的基于关系的艺术探究。
