In Episode 10 of “Living Our Best With Memory Loss,” we are excited to welcome Teepa Snow, a world-renowned dementia care specialist and the founder of the Positive Approach to Care® (PAC). Teepa brings her deep knowledge and innovative methods to the conversation, offering insights that are both practical and transformative for anyone navigating life with dementia.


Teepa discusses her PAC approach, emphasizing the importance of focusing on what individuals with dementia can still do rather than what they have lost. She introduces her GEMS® model, which redefines how we think about dementia by describing brain changes as “states” rather than rigid “stages.” This perspective allows for a more compassionate and adaptable approach to care.


Throughout the episode, Teepa shares practical tips on how to better engage with those living with dementia, including the concept of multimodal learning. She explains how caregivers can use visual, auditory, and tactile cues to connect more effectively with their loved ones.


This episode is filled with Teepa’s signature blend of wisdom, humor, and heartfelt understanding, making it a must-listen for caregivers, family members, and anyone interested in learning more about dementia care.
