Certified Dementia Practitioners

Making a Difference Through Dementia Care

For over 20 years, the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners (NCCDP) has equipped care professionals with the knowledge and credentials to deliver skilled, person-centered dementia care. Certifications are built around one belief: that every person living with dementia deserves support from someone who truly knows how to help.

A Certified Dementia Practitioner® (CDP®) certification reflects our ongoing commitment to person-centered dementia care, sustained through recertification every two years to stay current in
the field. It’s an added specialization and demonstrates our dedication to excellence in the care of people living with dementia.

Every member of the Golden Lifestyle Partners team holds the Certified Dementia Practitioner® (CDP®) credential from the NCCDP. We bring our dementia care training and local knowledge to every family we guide through a dementia care decision. Whether you’re exploring support at home or comparing memory care communities in Hampton Roads, we help you ask the right questions and find options that fit your loved one’s needs, preferences, and daily routines.
