Virtual Dementia Tour (VDT)

A hands-on experience enables people to become sensitized to what Dementia or Alzheimer's disease might feel like. Thousands of people have participated in this tour. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive as it teaches us to provide more sensitive care by walking in the shoes of people with Dementia. VDT kits are available for families and group settings, contact, Second Wind Dreams(R) at www.secondwind.org. Dementia affects every segment of our society and professional VDT presenters are available for any group. Contact pk@secondwind.org

This is an incredible experience that EVERYONE needs to experience, because we all know someone with dementia or caring for someone with dementia. I highly recommend this experience.
