Emotion-based care focuses on quality, whole-person care in an environment that looks, feels and smells like home. With a focus on knowing the person (the resident), members of the team enjoy quality interactions with each individual, based on their life stories. The environment is set up for success. Together, the team creates a home where people want to live, work and visit.
DementiAbility is one of BSOs evidence-based 5-STaR programs. These programs provide an essential foundation for emotion-based (relational based) care.
