Presentation Topic:

Communication and Behavior Strategies for Residents Living with Dementia

Presented by Home Health Clinicians, Evergreen Health

Description:

This training provides practical guidance on effective communication and behavior support strategies for residents living with dementia. Participants will gain an understanding of how cognitive changes associated with dementia impact communication and behavior, and will learn person-centered approaches to reduce distress and responsive behaviors. The session includes instruction on identifying common triggers, implementing proactive non-pharmacological interventions, and applying environmental and activity-based modifications that promote engagement, dignity, and quality of life. By the end of the training, participants will be able to describe the effects of cognitive decline on communication, demonstrate person-centered communication techniques, and apply practical strategies to support safer, more supportive daily care interactions.

1.0 CEU available to all AFH Council members who attend.
