Understanding Dementia: Experience Everyday Life from a New Perspective
What does a typical day with dementia feel like? The interactive exhibition Dementia Simulator at the District Hospital Mainkofen makes typical everyday challenges immediately tangible. On September 29, 2026, visitors will have the opportunity to experience perception, orientation, and emotional burdens from an unfamiliar perspective.
14 Everyday Situations That Create Understanding
The Dementia Simulator guides through 14 everyday situations. Each station provides a practical approach to the changes that people with dementia may experience. The event experience combines health information with personal experience and creates space for a more understanding view of those affected.
Practical Relevance for Relatives, Care, and Volunteer Work
The exhibition is particularly aimed at family caregivers as well as individuals involved with dementia during their training, profession, or volunteer work. For these target groups, the format offers valuable insights for care, communication, and dealing with challenging situations.
