​About Oasis 2.0

Oasis 2.0 is a unique approach to achieving collaborative, interdisciplinary person-directed care.​ Staff who went through the original training dubbed it “Oasis” because it captured the sense of calm and safety they felt -- even in difficult situations.

​Oasis is now in use in over 1200 nursing homes in several states, helping residents with dementia enjoy a higher quality of life.

Staff

Staff like Oasis 2.0 because it recognizes their caring and their skills.
​
Administrators

​Administrators like it because it helps increase resident and family satisfaction and helps reduce use of unnecessary antipsychotics.
Residents and Families

​Residents and families like it because they feel seen, heard, valued and respected.

​“It’s kinda visionary stuff, but mostly it's common sense…[Oasis] made me not want to give up.”  
​-- Oasis training participant

History
​The training was designed in 2009 to help turn around three long-term care facilities experiencing staff burnout, high turnover, high levels of resident-to-resident and resident-to-staff incidents and recurrent findings of immediate jeopardy. The interdisciplinary approach of Oasis proved successful and became the foundation for three larger pilots in Massachusetts and Vermont.
 
​Training
Oasis 2.0 uses a train-the-trainer model augmented by on-site champions, coaching, booster sessions and just-in-time learning opportunities arising from day-to-day experience. Teams from facilities are introduced to Oasis 2.0 in an initial, intensive 1-2 day training for trainers at which the Oasis 2.0 teams receive a manual with a DVD containing slides and supplemental materials.
