Leaders in Dementia Care...We Always Knew It!

Juniper Village at Aurora is proud to announce the achievement of the Leaders in Dementia Care Certification. This certification was introduced as part of the recommendations in the Colorado State
Alzheimer's Disease Plan, created by the Colorado Alzheimer's Coordinating Council. This new training standard (as of July 1, 2012) is supported by the Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment. The Certification requirements are that at least 75% of all associates have completed 8 hours of annual Alzheimer's training by a qualified instructor, presented in an approved manner. This is an annual certification. It is Juniper's commitment to provide quality service to residents, and to set associates up for success (with the right job, the right training, right tools, etc), this was a certificate that would be able to prove this measure of standard.
