What is The Montessori Method?

The Montessori Methods for Dementia are based on the theory and practices of the Italian physician Dr. Maria Montessori. These methods have been applied to patients with dementia by pioneering psychologists and care workers to provide a novel and effective treatment for the symptoms of dementia. While it is still a relatively new approach to Dementia treatment, there is evidence that the Montessori Method can reduce anxiety for people with dementia by providing them with mentally engaging activities that they find rewarding.
