Advice From Your Advocates

Send us a Text Message.

Elisa Bosley, a licensed non-denominational Chaplin based in Colorado, met with host Attorney Bob Mannor to discuss the lack of faith-based resources for those facing Dementia, Alzheimer's disease or memory loss.

With decades of experience leading worship and bible studies, Elisa founded Spiritualeldercare.com and subsequently her YouTube Channel.

Elisa explains the differences between religious care and spiritual care as well as what those differences can mean for the person with Dementia. The impact of spiritual care revolves around the familiarity and repetition of practice that elders with Dementia can lean into their long-term memory.
Items like songs, scripture, and poems offer opportunities for these individuals to participate in something they know and provide a sense of community and familiarity.
