Please join
us for our Direct Caregiver Conference “Caring for People Living with
Alzheimer’s Disease: A Habilitation Training”
The conference will take place on Thursday October 26, 2017 from 8
AM – 4:30 PM at Claremont Nursing & Rehabilitation Center, 1000
Claremont Road, Carlisle, PA 17013.
This conference is designed to educate and train direct care providers on what
must be done to provide exceptional Dementia Care. The conference will
introduce the core dementia approach, Habilitation Therapy. Participants will
be encouraged to abandon the stereotypes about aging, and understanding that
Alzheimer’s is a disease not the normal consequences of aging. Habilitation
Therapy helps to provide those living with Alzheimer’s or another related
dementia to be active, enjoy their day and to assist with personal care tasks
as they are able. The primary goal of Habilitation Therapy is to promote a
positive emotion in the person living with dementia by maximizing their
strengths and abilities, and minimizing their limitations.
For additional information or to register please contact Jan Reisinger @ jreisinger@alz.org or call 717-651-5020.
