Course Description:
Individuals with dementia interact with a variety of professionals including
nursing staff, psychologists, counselors, social workers, OTs, PTs, SLPs, home
health aides, adult day center staff, and first responders. Still, many haven’t
had extensive training on the complexities that make working with this
population so challenging.
Without appropriate training, safety risks grow and opportunities to
improve care and quality of life are missed.
This 2-Day Certificate Course is a must-have for anyone working with
patients facing Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias that will give you
the tools, skills and understanding of the disease you need to provide the best
care possible.
Over two intensive days you’ll discover how you can assess for and
differentiate between different types of dementias, overcome the
communication issues that can obstruct quality care, work more
collaboratively with family and caregivers, maximize daily functioning, and
safely and effectively intervene when difficult behaviors arise.
No matter your profession, you can’t afford to miss out on this chance
to get the skills, tactics and knowledge you need to more confidently and
capably work with dementia patients.
