Everyone agrees:<\/b> <\/b>Dementia affects more than just the person who has it. Family members are impacted, too \u2014 particularly daily caregivers. <\/p>\n
The good news: \u201cPatient-care options and family-support resources are constantly evolving,\u201d says Nicole Gann, CEO of Juliette Fowler Communities.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt Fowler, our team understands how to set families up for success in navigating age-related cognitive changes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fowler is also homebase to the Dallas chapter of Dementia Friendly America, a national initiative. <\/p>\n
\u201cWith Dementia Friendly, which began a few years ago, we\u2019ve had great success increasing the flow of information about dementia to the public. Fowler trained 60 \u2018Dementia Friends\u2019 the first year; last year, 400 were trained. And we have already trained more than 400 in the early part of 2025,\u201d Gann says.<\/p>\n
Trained \u201cDementia Friends\u201d are empowered to empathize with those affected by dementia, to meet them where they are, and to be helpful in public spaces. By providing Dementia Friendly training in churches, hospitals and organizations such as the Junior League of Dallas, Fowler helps Dallasites recognize early signs of dementia in others and raise awareness. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe support the person and their caregivers; a person with dementia can be happy if well-cared-for, but it\u2019s simultaneously hard for family members to perceive they are losing their person. We set them up for the best success possible,\u201d Gann says.<\/p>\n
Currently, Fowler has 20 memory support apartments, with 19 more opening this summer.<\/p>\n
As a neighborhood resource, Fowler is set up to accommodate early stages of dementia in every residential program on campus, helping residents stay in independent living environments longer. In Fowler\u2019s higher level of assisted-living care, additional and more personalized services are included, and staff is always hands-on and involved. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe are adding high-tech engagement opportunities, gaming, interactive and AI-led features, along with therapeutic art and stress-relieving activities that engage mind and body,\u201d Gann says.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are committed to implementing cutting-edge dementia initiatives. Everyone knows at least one person with dementia, and in any stage of the disease, there are different needs: day help, long-term memory support, and everything in between.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fowler\u2019s adult day support program centered on dementia will open in 2026, utilizing the same techniques as Fowler\u2019s \u201cI\u2019m Still Here\u201d residential program. <\/p>\n
With Fowler\u2019s options enabling impacted neighbors to stay in their own homes longer and helping provide a break to family care-providers, families will be able to navigate dementia in increasingly better ways.<\/p>\n
