Recognizing the increasing demand for education on dementia and cognitive changes, we have developed a series of monthly sessions to help address these needs.
Each month, we will focus on a specific topic, providing two separate sessions per topic, each with three available time slots.
Wellness Managers/ Directors of Care, we encourage you to share this with your frontline staff as the education will be beneficial to all staff in all departments.
