Please choose the time that is most convenient for you.
Research UpdateCaregivers will learn how to understand behaviour as a form of communication. We will explore strategies to determine what the person with dementia might be trying to communicate, to find ways to decrease the occurrence of behaviours that concern us and to respond in supportive ways. Thursday, April 21, 2016, 1 p.m. PDT
Join Dr. Haakon Nygaard as he explores the question,
"Is there light at the end of the tunnel?". This session will
review some of the exciting scientific progress being made in Alzheimer's
disease research and its potential future clinical directions.
