Program Description

Event Details

If you understand dementia and the individual, navigating tricky or challenging behaviors becomes a different kind of experience. It’s as if you have a new lens through which to see the same behavior.  This program will educate on some specific behaviors and discuss potential creative responses to achieve more harmonious outcomes. This program will also lean heavily on treating residents as adults and interacting with dignity and respect, despite a disease and despite their behaviors. With a high professional and ethical standard, our response to tricky behaviors should be nothing less than honorable and full of integrity.
