An Uplifting, Supportive Approach to Dementia Care
Rooted in Understanding the Changing Brain
Silverleaf Academy was created to address one of the most critical needs in senior care: well-trained, confident, and compassionate caregivers. Founded by the leadership team behind Silverleaf’s assisted living communities, the Academy exists to develop the next generation of care professionals through practical education, strong standards, and a deep respect for the responsibility that comes with caring for others.
The Academy provides structured training programs designed to prepare students for real-world caregiving roles, with an emphasis on safety, professionalism, accountability, and quality of care. Our curriculum is built around hands-on knowledge, clear expectations, and the realities caregivers face every day, bridging the gap between classroom learning and on-the-job performance.
Silverleaf Academy was created not only to strengthen the workforce within Silverleaf communities, but also to elevate the standard of care across the broader senior care industry. By investing in education and career development, the Academy helps create stable care teams, reduce turnover, and ensure that residents and families are supported by caregivers who are properly trained and proud of the work they do.
At its core, Silverleaf Academy reflects a simple belief: exceptional care starts with exceptional training.
