Caregivers! Join us to better understand and respond to dementia related behavior

Behavior is a powerful form of communication and is one of the primary ways for people with dementia to communicate their needs and feelings as the ability to use language is lost. However, some behaviors can present real challenges for caregivers to manage. Join us to learn to decode behavioral messages, identify common behavior triggers, and learn strategies to help intervene with some of the most common behavioral challenges of Alzheimer’s disease. Join us for this FREE program at Senior Care of Trenton, 1450 Parkside Avenue #6 & #7, Trenton, on Monday, October 12, 2015. 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. RSVP 973-586-4300.
