Ocean County Caregiver Conference
Half-Day Workshop for Caregivers of People with Dementia in Ocean
This program is designed to address some of the challenging situations facing families and caregivers of individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. As the disease progresses, changing and unpredictable behaviors can often lead to misunderstanding, frustration and tension between the person with dementia and the caregiver. Discussion will focus on defining challenging behaviors, and associated medical and behavioral interventions. Attendees will also learn about guardianship-related issues and the importance of advanced legal and estate planning. We will conclude the program with an overview of helpful resource information that supports both the caregiver and the person with the disease.
A light breakfast will be provided.
