MONTESSORI ELDERCARE

Preparing the Environment

The needs of the elderly and individuals with dementia require that we prepare an environment that fosters purposeful work, movement, independence, hands-on learning, choice, order, routine, and repetition. 

 

Our goal when implementing a Montessori & the Aging program is to first develop a deep understanding of each individual and create an individualized plan for each person. We seek to support our clients physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively, and “help them to help themselves” so that they can sustain independence for as long as possible and live fully with hope and joy.   

 

​

Staff Training

Cobb Education Consulting offers training seminars on Montessori & the Aging. Montessori is more than a method, it is a philosophy of the heart. And by opening our hearts to others, by holding fast to our deep belief in the dignity of all people at every stage in their lives, we bring hope and joy to caregivers, families, and most important, the elderly and those living with dementia. We train staff to see what we see, and we help build communities that work.

CORPORATIONS

Montessori principles can and should be utilized in all kinds of organizations, including corporate environments. The Montessori Method and its fundamental tenets of choice, intrinsic motivation, self-correction, and team-building help corporations build communities that work. Seminars of how Montessori principles can be applied to your business will help you develop colleagues with drive, agency, creativity, respect, and compassion.
