MEET
the founder

Sarah Viola is the founder of Ever-Present Insight, dementia care principles and approaches to maximize quality of life and minimize behavioral changes for those living with cognitive impairment. Sarah has dedicated her career as and Occupational Therapist to individuals living with cognitive changes. She developed this passion early on as she was nearing the end of her college education.
Over the years she has studied and applied many models and approaches. Her goal has always been to improve the lives of those living with dementia. Helping they themselves, as well as their care providers understand it is possible to LIVE with dementia.
Over the years, Sarah has adapted and developed specialized approaches to prevent and manage behavioral symptoms that often present because of changes in cognition. She is now sharing her knowledge on a grander scale with the hope of having a broader impact for those affected through this education platform.
Sarah’s passion for this population grew even stronger as she supported her own grandmother through a life, living with vascular dementia. She recognized that all the approaches and care provider education she had provided over the years was more worthwhile than she originally thought. Having the opportunity to apply her own principles in such a personal way fueled her passion to a higher level and was the spark that started Ever-Present Insight.
The logo for Ever-Present Insight is that of waves within helping hands. Sarah’s personal goal is to help care partners learn vital skills in creating success for the person receiving care yet give and receive grace throughout the journey. Just as waves and ripples in water ebb and flow, accepting changes in weather and debris yet calming once again in the right conditions, we can provide this type of grace to ourselves and our loved ones while navigating through living with dementia. Sarah’s focus in education is to always remember the ever-present nature of individuals’ spirits that makes them unique and guides care as providers partner with them on the journey.
