Join us for a presentation The Empowered Caregiver: Communicating Effectively by the Alzheimer’s Association in partnership with Seniors At Home.
Dementia affects a person’s ability to communicate, making it hard for them to convey their wants and needs to the people around them. Caregivers can learn how to use a person-centered approach to communicate more effectively with someone experiencing any stage of the disease.
Topics include:
- How dementia affects communication
- Using a person-centered communication approach
- Tips for communicating with family, friends and health care professionals
Andrea Korsunsky, Director of Seniors At Home’s Center for Dementia Care, will serve as guest facilitator.
