Effective Communication Strategies & Fun Activities for Caregivers and Their Loved Ones

Communication is more than just talking and listening — it’s also about sending and receiving messages through attitude, tone of voice, and body language. As the disease progresses, individuals living with Alzheimer’s or other dementias lose the ability to use words, but families can find new ways to connect. Join us to explore how communication changes when someone is living with Alzheimer’s, learn how to interpret the verbal and behavioral communication, and identify strategies to help you connect and communicate at each stage of the disease. Followed by, Fun Activities for Caregivers and Their Loved Ones. With COVID-19 still hanging on, you may feel like you are running out of things to do with your loved one living with dementia. Kelly Shiraki, Director of Memory Care Services, Petersen Health Care, will share more fun ways to connect with and keep your loved one engaged and happy.
