Cornell Cooperative Extension Sullivan County and Alzheimer's Association Presents

Understanding and Responding to Dementia-Related Behavior

Behavior is a powerful form of communication and is one of the primary ways for people with dememtia to communicate their needs and feelings as the ability to use language is lost. However, some behaviors can present real challenges for caregivers to manage. Join us to learn to decode behavioral messages, identify common behavior triggers, and learn strategies to help intervene with some of the most common behavioral challenges of Alzheimer's disease. 

For more information or to RSVP, call the Caregiver Resource  Center at Cornell Cooperative Extension Sullivan County at 845.292.6180 or email bj125@cornell.edu

This program is supported in part by a grant from the New York State Department of Health.
