THIS EVENT IS PRESENTED BY THE ALZHEIMER’S ASSOCIATION
SHEILA GRIFFITH
Behavior is a powerful form of communication and is one of the primary ways people living with dementia communicate their needs and feelings as the ability to use language is lost. However, some behaviors can present real challenges for caregivers to manage. Learn to decode behavioral messages, identify common triggers, and learn strategies to help manage some of the most common behavioral challenges of Alzheimer’s disease. Join us for this virtual event today!
