Join us for a virtual event
This activity is pending approval from the National Association of Social Workers.
This session will provide you with a wide variety of perspectives on dementia. It will help you develop programming and services that meet the needs or all those affected by the disease. It will address dementia-related issues from the point of view of the individuals with dementia, individuals without dementia, family members, care-giving staff, food service and housekeeping staff, maintenance and reception staff, as well as friends and visitors, regulators, and marketing. By the end of this session, you will be able to discuss the impact of dementia on each of these 'players', describe some of the key strategies to meet the needs each has, and begin to develop programming and services that have a high probability of making a positive difference in the lives of all concerned.
Teepa’s experience in neurological impairment care spans both her personal and professional worlds. She is an advocate for those living with dementia and has made it her personal mission to help families and professionals better understand how it feels to be living with the challenges and changes that accompany various forms of the condition so that life can be lived fully and well.
Teepa's life mission is to shed a positive light on dementia by using her talents and abilities to develop awareness, knowledge, and skill with all people, that will transform what exists into a more positive dementia care culture.
