Join us as we highlight the relationship changes and challenges that may occur within the family when an individual is diagnosed with dementia. We will discuss real-life situations, as well as ways to promote problem-solving through improved communication.
This training will discuss the causes of aggressive behavior in individuals with dementia and share practical, effective responses to these behaviors. We will review case studies and current research on how others have successfully operated with these obstacles.
This interactive workshop will initially focus on how individuals with dementia communicate their needs and wants at the various stages of their disease process. In addition, participants will learn that all behavior has meaning, and that behavior is communication.
The Hearing Distressing Voices Simulation is a 2.5-hour workshop developed by Pat Deegan, PhD. It was designed to help individuals better understand what it is like to experience distressing voices.
In this high-impact Dementia Live experience, you will be immersed into life with dementia, resulting in a deeper understanding of what it’s like to live with a cognitive impairment and sensory change.
