Description [EN]

Join this session to learn about common behaviours seen with dementia including anxiety, agitation, refusing care, sundowning, and eloping. We will also discuss how you can support clients with these behaviours as well as escalation patterns that we often see with dementia. Since this session goes into specific dementia behaviours, it is recommended that you either have a baseline knowledge about dementia, attend the Dementia Foundations session, or watch the recording of Dementia Foundations with Lauren Orlofsky. PLEASE NOTE that this session will be on Microsoft TEAMS.
