A New Model of Care: Dementia Connection Model

If you are a healthcare professional or family caregiver, who provides care for Alzheimer's and Dementia individuals, this webinar is for you.

In this dementia care webinar, you will learn about the first-ever cognitive-behavioral approach to care called the Dementia Connection Model©, created by Dr. Jennifer Stelter, clinical psychologist, dementia expert, and Johns Hopkins Press author of The Busy Caregiver's Guide to Advanced Alzheimer Disease . The model ties together three key concepts in understanding Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia and how to provide the best quality of care. You will better understand the “why?” of dementia to provide a quality of life for those you care for. Then, you will exercise your brain in learning "how" to best implement the "what" - sensory-based, non-pharmacological approaches that positively influence the emotions and memories for those living with dementia, enabling positive, productive behavior expressions and a better connection.

You can earn 1 FREE continuing education (CE) credit, after completing the webinar evaluation.
