Q:	Is there a theme that runs through each of your programs?

Yes. We at Learned Conversation strive to engage our participants’ hearts and to stimulate their minds and emotions. Each of our programs is designed to promote cognition and social interaction, to create bonds between participants, and to encourage sharing of experiences and stories. We’ve done our job well when, for instance, two new shy residents who have sat together at the same table daily for a month, discover that they were both secretaries, or that they both have grandchildren who are physicians, or that they used to live close to one another. By participating in a Learned Conversations event, they can create a successful social connection and perhaps even the beginning of a beautiful friendship!

Q:	How many programs do you offer? Nobody wants to hear the same story over and over again.

Learned Conversations is constantly expanding its library of presentations and information. Currently we offer more than 40 different programs. That's enough unique monthly programming to last almost four years! With such a lengthy cycle of programs, audiences look forward to an adventure each time a Learned Conversations Facilitator visits. Our newest resource can also create unique musical themed programming to meet your needs.

Q:	As an activity director, I can lead a conversation. Why hire someone else to do it?

Because we at Learned Conversations specialize in creating and presenting stimulating, interactive cognitive programming targeted especially to seniors. Our sole focus is to extensively research and bring to life engaging topics that will involve seniors on several levels. We also provide a promotional flyer for each program to spur interest and attendance. You’re busy. Let someone else help you out with some of the planning and work.

Q:	If I don't have the time to lead an activity, I can ask a staff member to lead it for me.

Yes, you could. Yet a new face can often be refreshing. Learned Conversations facilitators bring with them a positive attitude and a bright smile. They will lend a hand, help coordinate logistics, be ready to listen and, of course, share a story or two, all enabling you and your staff to use that hour for another meaningful purpose.

Q:	What is the charge for your programs?

A:	Our pricing is somewhat flexible. Discounts can be offered when at least four programs are booked within a year. Please call or email for specific information.
