A Health & Wellness Workshop
Nurturing Connection in Dementia Care
Caring for someone with dementia can be challenging, emotional, and deeply personal. This interactive, in-person workshop focuses on practical, compassionate ways to understand and respond to dementia-related behaviors in loved ones.
Join us to:
- Learn how dementia can affect behavior and communication
- Explore common triggers and person-centered care approaches
- Gain practical strategies for interacting with loved ones experiencing cognitive change
- Connect with others to share experiences, challenges, and helpful tips
The program includes a short film, co-produced by Ashby Village member Howard Kirsch, that explores the realities of caregiving for loved ones with dementia, followed by facilitated roundtable conversations led by the Health & Wellness Team.
