Caring for a person with memory loss, dementia, or Alzheimer’s disease means you are paying attention to a lot of different things: what the professional caregivers want you to know; what the doctors want you to know; and what the “experts and authors” want you to know. This information session will help you re-focus on what the person with Alzheimer’s–Dementia wants you to know — and needs you to know.
Topics Include:
Understanding the very important differences between “Age-associated Memory Impairment” and “Alzheimer’s Disease”

suring meaningful connections for you and the person you love
