Crisis Prevention Institute Launches Dementia Capable Care Learning Library

MILWAUKEE—Crisis Prevention Institute (CPI) announced the launch of its new Dementia Capable Care Learning Library, an online continued learning solution to help organizations develop a dementia capable workforce, delivering evidence-based, person-centered dementia care.

The on-demand learning library allows staff across health care, senior living, memory care, homecare and hospice organizations to develop and sustain essential dementia care skills.

Built by CPI’s Dementia Care Specialists team, the company said the library features short, flexible courses aligned with CPI’s Dementia Capable Care (DCC) training approach, which emphasizes preserving dignity, reducing distress and improving quality of life for people living with dementia.

“We know the demand for dementia-capable care is rising across all settings,” said Tony Jace, CEO of CPI. “This new online library makes it easier for organizations to empower their staff with practical, person-centered strategies that improve outcomes for people living with dementia and their families.”

Key benefits for health care providers with a DCC Certified Instructor include:

• Dementia training and continued education: Helps staff grow confidence and competence while using Dementia Capable Care strategies to address common challenges.
• Anytime access: Staff can complete short courses on their schedule, reducing barriers to training with this free, annual subscription.
• Evidence-based content: Lessons are grounded in proven best practices for dementia care.
• Scalable learning: Supports organizations of all sizes, from individual caregivers to large health systems.
• Person-centered focus: Training is designed to help staff build positive, dignified relationships with people living with dementia.

CPI’s Dementia Capable Care Learning Library offers microlearning resources across several key categories, designed to support ongoing problem-solving and staff skill development. Organizations with a Dementia Capable Care Certified Instructor will gain access to several microlearning classes designed to reinforce and build upon core concepts taught in the DCC training program.
