CARES® is the dementia care training the most trusted nursing facilities in America rely on. Built on 29 years of research, in partnership with Duke, NYU, and the NIH. Proven to reduce antipsychotic medication use to zero.
CARES® is the only dementia training program with proven outcomes published in JAMDA, CMS recognition, and a turnkey admin portal designed for facility operators.
CMS-recognized dementia training accepted in all 50 states. ANCC and NAB accredited CEU certificates issued automatically. Surveyor-ready reports in one click.
Facilities using CARES® cut antipsychotic medication rates from 26% to 0% (JAMDA, 2026). Two RCTs confirm measurable improvements in resident care.
Trained caregivers stay longer and onboard new hires faster. The same 5-step framework applies to every care challenge, from ADLs to end-of-life.
A facility implementing CARES® cut their antipsychotic medication rate from 26% of residents to 1.8%, then to 0%. Published in the Journal of the American Medical Directors Association (JAMDA), 2026.
If your facility is part of a state CMP grant, your CARES® training is fully funded. Up to $18,000 per facility over three years. We handle reporting, compliance, and Site Champion support so you can focus on residents.
Every program teaches the same proven 5-step framework, applied to a different care challenge. Mix and match what your facility needs.
"Our staff are calmer, residents are happier, and we've cut behavioral incidents nearly in half. CARES® is the best decision we've made for our facility in the last decade."
Alzheimer's disease has affected my family directly. The training many caregivers receive simply isn't enough — and the people we love deserve better.
In 1997, I founded HealthCare Interactive to build dementia care training that actually works on the floor. Twenty-nine years later, our mission hasn't changed: better care for people living with dementia, and the families who love them.
