We are pleased to have Dr David Sheard, CEO / Founder of Dementia Care Matters, as our Care to Chat keynote speaker.  

The Butterfly Model of Dementia Care which began in the United Kingdom 22 years ago is now spreading across 5 countries and winning multiple awards from regulators.

The Butterfly Model is based on the core belief that designing for dementia is not about buildings first; but instead is about developing a transformational culture of care.  David will outline that this requires organisations to adopt a model of emotional intelligence, attached leadership, and 'matched households' where 'being' this permeates the organisation before they 'do' it. 

Come and hear what the first 7 Butterfly Home Projects in Canada have found embarking on this looks, sounds, and feels like. You will not want to miss this emotional, challenging, and visionary presentation.

Hot breakfast is included.
