Pioneer Manor of Hugoton, KS is the first facility in Kansas to be a participant in the Changing Minds brain health optimization program!
The staff and residents have been working hard since October 2022 to focus on optimizing diet, exercise, sleep optimization, stress reduction, socialization and cognitive stimulation to optimize brain health.
Pioneer Manor will also be featured on the PBS Kansas dementia series soon to air!

She has been the director of two geriatric behavioral health units. Having observed the importance of doing “with”, not “to” those living with dementia, she became certified in the Positive Approach to Care® program as a certified independent trainer and consultant.

Fiona’s favorite quote is “Changing minds…one brain at a time”
