Challenge: Dementia is one of the fastest growing diseases in the United States. Approximately 140,000 Virginians suffer from Alzheimer’s Disease or other forms of dementia and that number is expected to grow 35% by 2025. Commonwealth Senior Living wanted to highlight this statistic and to provide medical professionals, first responders, family caregivers, and interested individuals an opportunity to learn and gain a better understanding for the challenges those with dementia face. Commonwealth partnered Second Wind Dreams to offer its Virtual Dementia Program at its two dozen senior living communities.
