Dementia training
Every 65 seconds someone in the U.S. develops Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer’s is only one of the most common forms of dementia, a group conditions marked by a slow decline in memory, thinking and reasoning skills. Nearly 5.8 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s, and that number is expected to grow to 14 million by 2050. Dementia Training will help you on your path to become the best caregiver possible to those with dementia.
The Positive Approach to Care was developed by Teepa Snow, who is nationally known for her philosophy on dementia. The Positive Approach training for caregivers emphasizes how to live in a relationship with someone who has dementia and learn caregiving skills that can improve the quality of life for everyone involved.
