Kit 15 · The Long Goodbye · deliverable · designed and built by I Wayan Usada — instructional design portfolio
Care staff respond to dementia moments by joining her reality — honouring the emotion, skipping the false fact, giving the feeling somewhere to go — in all four scored moments.
Staff either correct the false fact (which breaks contact) or drift into deception; the middle skill — validation with an exit — was never practiced.
| # | Behavior | What it looks like | Where the artifact trains it |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Join the emotion before addressing content | response opens where she is | moment forks |
| 2 | Give the feeling somewhere to go | each right answer ends in a walk, story, search or window | response anatomy |
| 3 | Discuss the hard cases honestly | ethical dilemmas named, not smoothed | debrief |
It will not certify validation therapy — it trains one discussable habit with the debate named honestly.
Debrief scores the single lens — joined or abandoned — per moment, and names the therapeutic debate honestly.
