Alzheimer's Family Caregiver Education Group

The importance of understanding behavior changes for caregivers

Due to cognitive changes a person with dementia may not be able to respond in the usual way because dementia changes how they perceive and react to the world around them. By understanding the common symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and what other factors influence problem behaviors, you can better understand why your loved one might be acting in an unusual or frustrating way.  

This month's Family Caregiver education program, Understanding and responding to behavior changes, will give caregivers better insight as to why behavior changes occur, ways to respond and problem-solving tips to help prevent and cope with them.
