SUMMARY:Supporting Independence & Dignity: Managing Self-Care in Dementia
DESCRIPTION:Dementia is a progressive brain disease that can change a person’s ability to manage everyday self-care tasks such as dressing\, eating\, bathing\, and toileting. These changes are not a choice or a lack of effort. They are the result of changes in the brain. \nJoin us to better understand the “why” behind these shifts and learn practical\, compassionate strategies that help a person living with dementia maintain their highest level of independence and dignity. \n

SUMMARY:Truth\, Lies\, and Compassion: Ethical Communication in Dementia Care
DESCRIPTION:This presentation explores the ethical and practical challenges of truth-telling in dementia caregiving. It examines when honesty supports well-being—and when compassionate redirection or “therapeutic fibbing” may be more appropriate. Through real-world scenarios\, we’ll consider how caregivers can navigate these complex moments with empathy and respect. \n
