Accueil du grand âge, la méthode Montessori

2026
Trailer
As Western populations grow older and cognitive disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease become increasingly prevalent, how can we rethink the way we care for and accommodate the elderly? More broadly, how should we approach our relationship with aging and old age? The Montessori method, originally developed and recognized for fostering children’s development in educational settings, has proven particularly well suited to older adults. More than simply a practical tool, it represents a genuine shift in perspective on aging, one that is also revolutionizing approaches to care.
