Dementia Care Skills Training

November 1, 2016 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm MDT

Free

Good Samaritan Society volunteers and family members are invited to join us for a 2 hour workshop that will teach participants how to respond to a person’s change in cognition and abilities in a way that is not hurtful or offensive to a person living with dementia. By understanding the nature of skill loss and preserved abilities, we will learn to communicate differently and more effectively with those who are living with dementia.

Location: Southgate Care Centre, 2nd floor auditorium
