Memory loss that disrupts everyday life is not a normal part of aging. This program differs from “Understanding Dementia” as it explores the differences between normal age-related memory changes and abnormal changes that are associated with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, including some of the common warning signs.

As Alzheimer’s disease progresses, people with the disease lose their ability to use words to communicate.

Topics will include how to identify verbal and non-verbal messages to connect with the person living with Alzheimer’s disease.
