In Part 1, I discussed the benefits and costs of providing training to Persons with Dementia, Dementia Caregivers, and Healthcare Providers to empower them to use mind mapping methods.

I noted that unlike the traditional trainings given to primarily business users, healthcare workers and patients would need training which covered BOTH how to develop an effective mind map and specific ways to use the mind maps to enhance patient-centered care and patient-provider-caregiver communications and documentation.

I think that the minimal training in aggregate for the three stakeholder groups can be summarized in the following mind map. Note that not all modules (topics) are necessary or appropriate for all three groups.
