Description
Do you have a family member or loved one who is experiencing loss of their memory? How do you comfort them? What should you do as a friend, family member or caretaker?
Join us for an informational session that will outline many strategies for care, including a focus on the individual’s abilities and what they are still able to do independently. The session will also cover how to incorporate past interests into care for your love one.
