Through our partnership with Embodied Labs, you can experience the profound effect Alzheimer’s has on daily life.
In the Beatriz Lab, you will embody Beatriz, a middle-aged Latina woman, as progressive Alzheimer’s disease causes changes in her brain. From the early signs of cognitive changes to late-stage disease and the transition to residential care, the immersive experience offers valuable insight into how Alzheimer’s affects daily life, from processing and cognition to relationships and emotional well-being.
You will learn practical strategies to redirect, calm, and engage individuals with Alzheimer’s while gaining a deeper understanding of how the disease shapes their perception and interactions. This knowledge can help you build better empathy and improve your caregiving approach.
Watch testimonials from one Alzheimer’s caregiver, Kathy, to hear what she learned from this experience.
