OLLI Brown Bag Lunch Presentation – Holistic Dementia Care

Too often, care for people living with dementia overlooks the word “people” – instead focusing on controlling and minimizing certain behaviors. A more holistic approach acknowledges that no matter a person’s cognitive abilities, they remain a human with needs, wants, hopes, and ideas. Life Plan Humboldt invites you to join Susan Ryan of The Center for Innovation, which combines The Green House Project and Pioneer Network, for an in-depth discussion of holistic dementia care that honors individuals’ humanity and empowers caregivers to provide the best life possible for all elders.

Attendees will learn about care for people with dementia focused on providing the best life possible for affected individuals and their caretakers.
