Why are they doing that?
Understanding and Responding to Dementia-Related Behaviors
Tues, May 16th • 2-3:30 pm
In-person at Trailside

Caring for a loved one experiencing dementia comes with its own set of challenges. Have you ever been faced with a challenging situation that you were unsure how to handle? Did your words or actions make the situation better or worse? Trena Winans, Director of Education and Outreach and Billie Ritter, RN, Health Education Coordinator at Senior Services, will address common dementia behaviors caregivers encounter, consider the potential causes, and offer suggestions on how to deal with them. Come join the discussion.
