Spiritual Needs: Supporting Meaning, Identity, and Inner Well-Being
About this Event
Spiritual needs include a sense of meaning, identity, peace, and connection to what matters most—whether expressed through faith, values, nature, or relationships.
This session focuses on honoring the whole person beyond diagnosis.
We will explore:
• Supporting identity and personal history
• Creating moments of peace and reflection
• Connecting to what brings comfort and meaning
Dementia does not take away the need for meaning; it deepens it.
Final session of the 6-week series. Follow us to know when our next series begins.
