Most dementia training teaches caregivers what dementia is. Dementia Steady trains what they do at 2 AM, when a frightened client won't let them close and no one is coming to help. Then it shows you whether they can.
Your caregivers have sat through dementia training, and many could define sundowning on a quiz. What a certificate can't tell you is what happens when a client swings at someone in the bathroom, refuses her pills, or insists on leaving to pick up children who grew up fifty years ago. Those moments are where clients get hurt, families lose trust, and good caregivers decide to quit. Attendance records and knowledge tests don't show you how your team handles them.
Steady holds the ground.
The method was built inside a working home care agency, from real shifts with real clients, not in a classroom.
The Dementia Steady workshop. A single live session for your team, on site or virtual. Before it starts, each participant answers real scenes on Steady Check. Afterward, you receive a team summary showing where your staff's judgment is strong and where it isn't.
Groundwork. A self-paced course caregivers complete on their phones between visits: eight modules, about six hours in all. Each module opens with a real scene, teaches one part of the method, checks understanding with scenes where the details decide the right answer, and ends with a short task on a real shift that a supervisor reviews.
Dementia Steady Proficiency. Each caregiver answers a written scene they haven't seen before, scored against a rubric. Proficiency must be renewed to stay current, so it reflects current skill, not a class taken once.
Groundwork's first round of testing begins in November, with before-and-after answers scored blind by two independent scorers. We'll share what we find, including what doesn't work. Until the evidence is in, we don't make claims about outcomes we haven't measured.
Try Steady Check free with up to 10 of your caregivers. You'll get a team summary of where their judgment is strong and where it isn't, and each caregiver gets their own feedback.
