Good communication is essential when providing care for a family member in mid-to-later stage dementia. Learning sucessful ways to start conversations and activities makes daily tasks, like dressing and meals, less stressful. Learning how to respond to difficult questions can help avoid disagreements. When you're talking, laughing or reminiscing, you're both more likely to go through the day in a lighter mood.

This class if the first in a series of new skills-based programs designed with family caregivers in mind.
