I had never considered using a Montessori approach with this population. I think it is a great thing and this course was very informational about the type of assessment and approach one would need to take to implement such a practice. I am eager to learn more about this topic now!

The Montessori approach appeals to me and I could envision SLPs using this more effectively across a lot of environments, especially with preschoolers. I was also surprised by the importance of a reading assessment for those with dementia, but it makes sense.

My own children attended Montessori schools and since that time Dr. Montessori’s respect for children’s individuality and the promotion of intrinsic motivation through participating in the community have really impacted how I think of my pediatric patients. I don’t treat adults, so I had not heard of using Montessori ideals for elder care and found it to be such a beautiful and respectful way to provide care.

This was an engaging course. It helped me realize that the Montessori methods used with adult/geriatric populations has similarities tomethods used in early childhood therapy. Children best learn in a prepared environment that allows them to move freely, make choices, interact while at the same time the SLP can direct some choices to incorporate activities to enhance speech/language goals. All equaling success for the individual.

I was unaware that Montesorri principals are now being used in elder-care facilities, however, I think making elder care more person oriented is a much more empathetic method of care and allows more input from the elderly patient when so much in their lives is out of their control once they enter a facility.

The questions led into one another in explaining the evidence for Montessori, its application in practice, diagnostic and therapy examples, and broader use in the community. The information was clear with each question. Because it has been a long time since working with adults and dementia, I would have liked to see some visual examples of the cues with the goals. Otherwise, it was a very good course.
