Relationship Theatre is a registered trademark developmental model pioneered by the United Kingdom-based charity and social enterprise Ladder to the Moon to help caregivers interact more successfully with individuals living with dementia, learning disabilities and advanced old age.
Program process
[edit]The process involves professional actors and coaches experienced in social care, who creatively coach and interact with staff, residents and volunteers in care homes. Movie-based scenarios are played out, with the aim of fostering a greater level of engagement with residents.
Relationship Theatre programmes are designed to become integrated with the day-to-day running of the care environment, and have been successfully run in several British care homes.
