Dementia is everyone's business. After decades of being relegated to an issue of institutionalism, the idea that people living with dementia can have a quality of life is a huge step in furthering education, awareness and acceptance for millions of Americans that are affected by dementia. The Dementia Friendly Community movement is making great strides in bringing opportunities to change attitudes, actions and our thinking.

I supposed I'm naive, but I want to think that those in senior care are more passionate and compassionate about working with others for the greater good. I still believe this is true for most of us. Working well with others almost always comes back to us ten fold. This is true in life and business.
