What is Dementia, Really?

What is Dementia, Really? A 2-hour workshop is designed to help attendees develop a basic appreciation for what happens in the brain due to some form of dementia. Specifically, attendees will discover the value in what remains as the condition progresses, as well as an introduction of supportive responses. The goal is to see that the person living with dementia is doing the best they can, rather than assuming they are simply not trying, or doing something on purpose. Finally, attendees will learn to identify for themselves when it is time to pause their agenda, such as a care task, and seek support for themselves or the person living with dementia. Caregivers are not able to have those they care for with them online for class. This is a caregiver specific program. Thank you for your understanding. Please call 711 one week in advance to make arrangements for ADA support and language translation services as many services take time to arrange.
