Inside a Dutch 'dementia village,' where the whole neighborhood is designed for memory loss
64% Informative
Dutch 'dementia village' provides sense of "normalcy" for people living with dementia.
Village is self-contained neighborhood where people with dementia can walk around freely without fear of getting lost.
Residents live in small groups of six or seven in apartments with furnishings like they'd have at home.
Village residents are treated as people who still have aspirations.
The Hogeweyk is a great example of what it looks like to view people with dementia as people first and to care for them accordingly.
Dementia care is something Americans are going to have to look at closely.
The number of people living with Alzheimer's is set to nearly double from seven million to 13 million by 2050 .
