"Sharing Holiday Time with Persons with Dementia" Workshop

 

Sun City, Arizona – Monday, November 01, 2010 –Sun Valley Lodge and Hospice of the Valley are partnering to host a workshop for the friends and family members of persons with dementia on Thursday, November 11th at 3:00 PM.

 

The overall goal of this interactive presentation is to assist participants in understanding some of the common holiday-related issues that people with dementia may have. The unique considerations for holiday time with patients with dementia will be discussed including possible safety concerns and the importance of adjusting expectations related to celebrating the holidays.
