SUMMARY:Dementia or Alzheimer’s - Understanding the Difference
DESCRIPTION:Caregiver Teleconnection sessions are one hour learning sessions that can be done via Zoom or over the phone for caregivers of older persons. Experts from around the country share information important to caregiving. Caregivers will have the opportunity to ask questions as well as hear from other caregivers. \nOur sessions are geared for the family members taking care of a loved one over the age of 60. Professionals are also welcome to participate as well. \nWhen a diagnosis of Dementia is issued people usually assume that it is Alzheimer’s and often reference the two interchangeably. It is widely believed that Dementia and Alzheimer’s are the same thing. They are not! While Alzheimer’s may be the most common and widely recognized form of Dementia – it is not the only type. Nestor H. Praderio\, M.D. will explain how Dementia refers to an umbrella term of symptoms which impact a person’s ability to function on their own. He will also outline how Dementia\, in some instances may be reversed\, however\, Alzheimer’s is an incurable disease. The session will conclude following a Q&A period. \n

SUMMARY:New Year’s Resolutions for Caregiver Well-Being
DESCRIPTION:Caregiver Teleconnection sessions are one hour learning sessions that can be done via Zoom or over the phone for caregivers of older persons. Experts from around the country share information important to caregiving. Caregivers will have the opportunity to ask questions as well as hear from other caregivers. \nOur sessions are geared for the family members taking care of a loved one over the age of 60. Professionals are also welcome to participate as well. \nThis month Dr Jamie & our Caregiver Teleconnection provides caregivers a new and fresh start for planning\, for self-reflection and self-care as we transition into the new year. We know intuitively that for quality of life\, caregivers must focus on improving their overall health. \nIt’s a common tradition for most people to launch the New Year with a resolution – it’s a way of creating a fresh start for some and reinventing yourself for others. These New Year’s resolutions require individuals to set new goals in order to achieve expectations. \nUnmanaged stress negatively affects personal relationships\, general mood\, and one’s overall well-being. It also effects our loved ones health. This is why self-reflection and self-care are critical to the health of us as caregivers. It’s time to stop pouring from an empty cup – meet your own needs so that you can be a better caregiver. \n

SUMMARY:Embracing Tender Memories in Caregiving
DESCRIPTION:Caregiver Teleconnection sessions are one hour learning sessions that can be done via Zoom or over the phone for caregivers of older persons. Experts from around the country share information important to caregiving. Caregivers will have the opportunity to ask questions as well as hear from other caregivers. \nOur sessions are geared for the family members taking care of a loved one over the age of 60. Professionals are also welcome to participate as well. \nIt is easy for family caregivers to get swept up in the many tasks they need to do each day for care receivers. But when caregiving is over\, it won’t be memories of feeding or dressing their loved ones that will most matter to them; it will be tender moments of emotional closeness. In this Caregiver Teleconnection with Barry J. Jacobs\, Psy.D.\, a clinical psychologist\, author\, and consultant\, we’ll discuss ways of being present with care receivers by focusing more on being with them than doing for them. \n
