Essential Skills for Alzheimer Care: It Starts with Communication

Good communication is essential when providing care for a family member in mid-to-later stage dementia. There are many proven communication techniques that caregivers can learn to improve day-to-day life for those with dementia, and reduce their own stress. Learn how to communicate in a way that minimizes frustrations, decreases anxiety, and avoids disagreements.

This program is designed with family caregivers in mind and is presented in collaboration with BayPath Elder Services and the Alzheimer’s Association through an Administration on Aging Grant administered by the Massachusetts Executive Office of Elder Affairs.

Presenters: Jill Seiler-Moon & Debra Katt-Lloyd, Alzheimer’s Association
