Setting the Standard

Reminiscing is becoming a standard of care for senior care providers, and our new Legacy Stories Reminiscence Program is setting that standard with minimal time or demand on staff or caregivers.

In addition to cognitive and emotional benefits, the program greatly enhances client/family/provider interactions, increases the perceived value of personal care and has been shown to increase both caregiver and client retention rates, so you have more time to grow your business and less time spent on training and recruiting.

The program also includes a robust marketing/outreach component that energizes your referral sources and generates high quality leads while adding care time at basic or skilled rates. Providers can now offer families and loved ones a valuable service they already want, and they want this service more than for therapeutic reasons. 

Consider this survey, which asked Baby Boomers and their parents to prioritize their assets when it comes to leaving a legacy. You can see in the chart below how much more they care about leaving life lessons than financial assets. The Legacy Stories Reminiscence Program is designed to give elders a renewed sense of purpose by sharing their legacy stories through reminiscing, a must-have service to be included in your care plans. 


Reminisence Therapy

The demographic tsunami of Baby Boomers is leading to an exponential increase in Alzheimer's and Dementia and a subsequent demand for more and more effective Memory Care programs

One of the most important new activities is Reminiscence Therapy, which is fast becoming a standard of care for assisted living and home care providers.

Reminiscing with other residents in a group, or individually with a caregiver, has been shown to elevate mood, encourage social interaction and stimulate memory function. But this positive benefit is often fleeting, which is why we developed the Legacy Stories Reminiscence Program.


How the Program Works

The Legacy Stories Reminiscence Program is an innovative and intuitive solution that takes Reminiscence Therapy to a higher level with very little effort and no additional staff.

Developed over the past decade by a team of experts in multiple disciplines, the Legacy Stories Reminiscence Program utilizes smartphone and tablet technology to scan vintage photos and record the elder’s voice while reminiscing, creating a permanent, durable legacy that can be treasured through generations of the family.

Recordings are uploaded to a cloud-secured legacy portfolio in the LegacyStories.org website where family and friends can connect and discriminately share legacy stories.

Facilitators can easily integrate the program into their regularly scheduled story sharing circles. Only this time, by preserving the teller’s voice, the group is “reminiscing with purpose.”

By contributing life lessons, values and traditions to the family legacy, elders gain a renewed sense of purpose and the knowledge that they still play a vital role in their family.

Home Care providers can offer their client families a priceless legacy-building service, either as value-add or by offering legacy services at skilled rates. With qualified caregivers or a dedicated legacy advisor, providers can easily expand their care plans while differentiating themselves from the competition.

In addition to the Self-Guided Reminiscence Program promoted and delivered on your existing website, your staff or caregivers can conduct life review interviews and record client reminiscences in a matter of one to two hours when completing the online StoryKeeper Certification Course.

Self-Guided Reminiscence Program

The “Self-Guided” Reminiscence Program is delivered on your website so family members and community groups of all kinds can learn how to record their own legacy stories and/or contribute to their loved one’s legacy. This establishes a meaningful and durable intergenerational bond between participants, their family and your company.

Simply by inviting families and group members to view the introductory video (shown above) and register for the program for free on your website, they also learn about other services you offer.

Upon registering, participants receive weekly emails with memory triggers that cover all life stages, starting with ancestors and progressing chronologically. With this knowledge and experience, visitations become more frequent and meaningful because everyone is on the same page. 

The Self-Guided interface can be installed on a dedicated webpage quickly and easily by you, your web expert or our tech team. 

We provide excellent promotional flyers and presentation videos to inform, engage and motivate everyone to get involved by going to your website to get started.
