Calming the Chaos

On this episode of Tips from Trestle, Aaron welcomes Michelle Magner, founder of Inspired Caring, to discuss supporting families through the transition to memory care. Recorded live at the ALAA Spring Conference, Michele draws from her extensive experience as a caregiver and certified dementia practitioner, to share practical strategies for calming the chaos, focusing on the “Three C’s” - curiosity, communication, and compassion. The conversation highlights the importance of mindfulness, gratitude practices, and holistic support for both residents and caregivers. Listeners gain actionable insights for improving the senior living experience, fostering stronger family relationships, and elevating foodservice and hospitality standards. These practices are great not just for caregivers, but for everyone working in senior living!
