Dementia is often equated with ‘memory problems.’ While this is an important component, there are many other changes that happen to the brain. These changes impact how the person living with dementia experiences the world around them.
In this program, we will learn about changes that impact the sensory systems, such as vision and hearing, and strategies to provide support through these changes. This will include modifications to the home environment that may help. We will also discuss how changes to the brain may impact the person in other ways, such as impulse control and the ability to understand speech.
This is a two-part program. When you register for the first class, you are registered for both sessions.
You will receive a zoom link for the program on the day of the class. If you do not recieve the link, please contact the Aging Resource Center at 603-653-3460
