| The goal of the staff training tool belt worn by the program director, charge nurse, or SDC is to provide CNAs with a learning tool to help the Alzheimer's care program learn more about Alzheimer’s disease. Each tool belt contains a large stack of cards that asks questions pertaining to Alzheimer’s disease, the implications of this disease and appropriate care approaches. For every correct answer a staff member is rewarded with a poker chip. If an individual collects more than 3 chips, he/she will receive an appropriate reinforcement/reward, such as gum,candy, soft drink or coupon for successfully answering questions and understanding the best care approaches. The tool belt comes with a canvas work apron (ties at waist, one size fits most), cards, and poker chips.

| When a person has dementia, it is quite typical for them to live in the past – in years during which they were most active. We find that most people with Alzheimer’s remember and recognize life from the 1950s to 1970s. With that in mind, Alzheimer’s Care Group has collaborated with musicians to provide a series of musical cds and dvds appropriate for cognitive stimulation of people living with dementia. The selected music and television programming dates back to the time period they remember.
