SUMMARY:Movie Screening: It Is Not Over Yet (Employees Only)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a heartwarming and inspiring movie event as we watch the documentary Inside Denmark’s Radical Dementia Care Home (also known as It Is Not Over Yet). \nAbout the Film\nThis documentary follows nurse May Bjerre Eiby and her innovative approach at the Dagmarsminde care home in Denmark. Instead of relying heavily on medication\, May and her team focus on what matters most: human connection. \nThrough hugs\, laughter\, eye contact\, meaningful relationships\, and simple everyday moments\, they show how compassionate\, person-centered care can transform the lives of people living with dementia. It’s a powerful reminder of the difference empathy\, dignity\, and genuine connection can make. \nWhy We’re Watching\nJoin your fellow caregivers for an evening of learning\, reflection\, and conversation. At Seniors Helping Seniors\, we believe great dementia care starts with relationships\, and this film beautifully reflects the values that guide our work every day. We hope you’ll leave feeling inspired with new ideas to bring even more joy and connection to the older adults you support. \n\nPizza and refreshments will be served \nPlease RSVP by Tuesday\,  September 8th.
