First “Montessori Minds Meetup” Workshop a Success

? We are filled with joy after the incredible day we spent at the very first Montessori Minds Meetup last week! ?

We were inspired and energized by our fellow Montessorians’ presence at this inaugural workshop hosted in Cleveland. These passionate leaders are part of a social movement to create positive change in the senior living industry. We learned just as much from them as they did from us.

We asked our attendees “Did you enjoy doing this? Would you like to do this again?”

Here are some of their kind remarks:

➡ “This was the most fun conference or training I have ever been a part of. The enthusiasm that all of its leaders have is palpable. Similarly, the other attendees all wanted to be there! The content was great and diverse. It was applicable to all attendees with varied management, clinical, direct care backgrounds.”

➡ “Just left the first annual “Montessori Minds Meetup” and I feel both energized and renewed in my spirit to my commitment and goals of helping my Friends (residents) find joy, contentment, purpose, autonomy and connection in every day!”

➡ “Montessori is the missing piece I have been looking for in my career in LTC. It is absolutely amazing putting these principles in place and watching our residents come out of their shells, display happiness, and have increased quality of life.”

➡ “The time we have spent with CARD, learning about the Montessori Inspired Lifestyle has been nothing short of transformational. Our team members have built stronger relationships and have developed a true collaborative spirit. Interdisciplinary strategies have been inspired. We have seen residents with longstanding unmet needs transform into engaged and happier individuals. Families have noticed and are so impressed with the changes. This is how we know senior care should be approached and we are so grateful for the opportunity to continue the transformation!”
