Welcome to the Home Page of
The Validation Training
Institute, Inc.
Here you can find information about Validation, a method for communicating with very old people who are diagnosed with dementia. In addition to articles, videos, DVDs and books, the best introduction to Validation is through a Validation Workshop, given by Naomi Feil, developer of the Validation Method. The DVD "Communications with Alheimer-type Populations" is especially helpful for families.
