Alzheimer's Association Talk: Empowered Caregiver: Supporting Independence
Supporting Independence focuses on helping the person living with dementia take part in daily activities, providing the right amount of support and balancing safety and independence while managing expectations.
After the one-hour lecture, attendees are warmly encouraged to stay for a relaxed 30-minute social gathering - an opportunity to mingle, connect, and continue the conversation.
The Alzheimer's Association® offers a range of caregiver skill-building courses. Each course includes questions to check existing knowledge and exercises to apply new learnings to personal caregiving situations. The courses aim to help caregivers feel more prepared to handle the challenges that come with caring for someone living with dementia.
