Free Virtual Dementia Workshop for Professionals – Thursday, September 10 from 1p – 3:15p EST

September 10, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 3:15 pm

Dear valued partner, 
 
Back by popular demand our partner and collaborator, Heather McKay, PhD, OT/L and Alzheimer’s Foundation of America 2016 Dementia Person of the Year, will be offering a new dementia workshop: Adapting Care Along the Timeline of Dementia. Social Workers and Nurses/LPN will earn two continuing education credits.
 
By the end of this educational program, participants will be able to explain dementia terminology, describe symptom progression in five stages, identify common challenges arising in each stage, and select appropriate communication and hands-on strategies to optimize client’s remaining abilities throughout the progression of the disease.
 
To meet the current learning environment, Heather will provide a powerful learning experience using clinical-storytelling that will engage any professional attendee.  
 
The event takes place Thursday, September 10 from 1p – 3:15p EST (this allows for one 10 minute break) via Zoom.
