The Positive Physical Approach™ (PPA) is a 6-9 step method used to approach and connect with a person living with dementia, resulting in a reduced chance of agitation and greater mutual understanding and comfort.

Hand-under-Hand® (HuH) is an evidence-based, research-proven care technique developed by dementia expert Teepa Snow. It utilizes the remaining muscle memory of a person living with dementia to offer comfort and initiate activity. It also enables care partners to better assist with activities of daily living, such as eating, drinking, or personal care.
