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. |

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.
