Description
At Dementia Care Advocates, we want to make caregiving easier for you and we will. A caregiver told us she wished that the dementia diagnosis came with an instruction manual because she was left with so many questions. She wanted to know what dementia was, what were the stages, what to expect at each stage, how the brain changes, the symptoms that come with it, etc.I had the same questions when caring for my grandmother, and so did our whole team. That's why our team created a what's, why's, and how's of dementia online course. This easy-to-understand course is the dementia resource you have been missing. It's time to stop spending your time searching on Google because these courses are a collection of materials gathered from many dementia resources as well as written material by our team, all in one place.
