SUMMARY:Aging in the 21st Century: What Caregivers Need to Know Now
DESCRIPTION:The COVID-19 pandemic revealed many problems in our healthcare system\, especially in long term care settings. Many seniors and their families consider the option of long-term care at some point\, but the pandemic has made us rethink those options. In addition to long-term care\, some are considering aging-in-place\, or living with relatives if they can. Our sessions will explore these options and will offer tips and resources that support healthy aging for all in a post-pandemic world. \nWhat do caregivers and seniors need to consider to age-in-place? What resources are required? How to evaluate your home for the feasibility of aging-in-place? What modifications will be required? \n

SUMMARY:Dementia Diagnosis and Treatment
DESCRIPTION:Dementia is a scary term and is often misunderstood. Dementia isn’t defined as a specific disease. It is generally described as a group of symptoms which affect cognitive and social abilities to the extent that they interfere with the functions of daily living. Dementia is usually confused with Alzheimer’s because it is the most common type; however\, there are symptoms of dementia that are caused by other conditions – some of which may even be reversible. Nestor H. Praderio\, MD will review the dementia diagnosis process and explain the types of dementia including symptoms and stages. He will also outline intervention and treatment options. \n

SUMMARY:Online-Self-Love: The Gift That Keeps on Giving
DESCRIPTION:People-pleasing is a losing battle. When you focus on self-love and self-compassion rather than trying to get others to love you\, you build your self-esteem\, your own resiliency and break codependent patterns so you can form healthier\, happier relationships—with yourself and others. \nFor various reasons\, many of us find it easier to love others than to love ourselves. Sometimes we’re truly quite awful to ourselves. We subject ourselves to a harsh inner critic\, unhealthy relationships\, toxic substances\, and self-mutilation. I know how easy it is to dwell on your own perceived inadequacies. \nBut regardless of the reasons for your lack of self-love\, this Take Your Oxygen First Valentines Month Session will remind you how caring for yourself and treating yourself with the same love that you give to others dramatically changes our experience to give care and the World around us.

SUMMARY:Online-How are YOU feeling?
DESCRIPTION:As a caregiver we are often asked “how is your loved one doing?”. Every now and then someone may ask how you are doing. Almost as a reflex your response is\n“I am fine” or the ever popular “I’m hanging in there”. But are you really? Do you dare share that you are mentally\, emotionally\, and physically exhausted? Are you feeling frustrated\, guilty\, short tempered\, depressed\, isolated and overwhelmed? Have the hurdles of health insurance\, medication management\, daily care and family dynamics drained your energy and outlook? \nThese feelings and emotions may surface when you take on the role of caregiving. There is no doubt of the unconditional love and devotion you have for your loved one. Just remember that you\, too\, are important. All of your emotions – positive and negative are valid and important. Dr. Praderio will facilitate an in-depth discussion on Caregiver feelings. You will have an opportunity to express your questions and concerns regarding your situation and hear how other Caregivers are coping.

SUMMARY:Online-The Nine Most Common Dementias
DESCRIPTION:This session will review the nine most common forms of dementia. These nine make up approximately 98 percent of all dementias. Identifying the dementia or dementias your loved one has is critical to today’s care and planning for future care. The type of dementia needs to be identified for a number of reasons. It is now a part of your children and grandchildren’s medical background. The type of dementia determines progression of the disease\, behaviors\, medications\, and care. \nThis session will allow family caregivers to remove the dementias they realize their loved one cannot have\, allowing them to go back to the doctor with more specific questions about care. \n**Sponsored by VITAS Healthcare**
