Culturally Specific Dementia Care

Dementia does not discriminate - it affects people of all cultures and backgrounds. People’s backgrounds and beliefs inform their sense of self, how they understand, feel about, and respond to other people and their environment - including diagnoses, health and care organizations and their staff. It is important to know how to best provide care to meet one's needs while recognizing their cultural values and beliefs. Join us for an in-depth training on cultural specific care and how you can meet the person where they are with their needs.

This program is a part of our monthly Care Partner Training series. All sessions are FREE, and held the second Wednesday of each month from 1:00 to 2:30 pm.
