More than 300 (and growing) scientifically based interventions

We have created a collection of over 300 interventions, and the selection continues to grow based on new research. From these interventions, we select and custom-tailor a program that is adapted and revised over time to correspond with the client’s needs.

We cover more than just memory! Our interventions are targeted towards five primary cognitive domains that have been shown to be affected by cognitive decline. Home Care Assistance caregivers are trained in over 20 activities primarily targeting the five cognitive domains. Certified Interventionists are trained in a wider range of activities, carefully selected for each client and targeting the cognitive as well as non-cognitive areas.
