Dementia-Alzheimer's Free Programs

Dementia-Alzheimer's Free Program Available For Families and Caregivers.

In a significant effort to support caregivers and families navigating the complexities of dementia and Alzheimer's disease, RES Home Care is partnering with the Alzheimer's Association to provide three vital educational programs, completely free of charge. 

Recognizing the immense challenges faced by those caring for loved ones with dementia, RES Home Care aims to empower the community with knowledge and practical skills. The three-part program focuses on key areas crucial for providing compassionate and effective care: 

• Communicating Effectively: This session will equip participants with strategies and techniques to improve communication with individuals living with dementia. Learn how to understand non-verbal cues, manage communication breakdowns, and foster meaningful connections despite cognitive decline. 

• Dementia Conversations: Navigating difficult conversations related to dementia can be overwhelming. This program will offer guidance and tools for addressing topics such as driving safety, doctor visits, legal and financial planning, and end-of-life decisions. 

• Responding to Dementia-Related Behavior: Understanding and responding appropriately to behavioral changes associated with dementia is essential for maintaining a safe and supportive environment. This session will provide insights into common behavioral challenges and offer practical strategies for managing them with empathy and understanding. 

The programs will be held on location at the RES Community Center, located at 1461 Lakeland Ave, Bohemia NY 11716. This accessible location ensures that the valuable information is readily available to the local community.
