SUMMARY:Dementia Training for Kalaupapa
DESCRIPTION:This Positive Approach to Care (PAC) Approved workshop helps learners understand and recognize the differences in normal and not normal aging. The learner will develop better observational skills to recognize and intervene effectively when behavioral challenges occur. Learners will also develop new skills related to approach\, cueing\, and the ability to connect with people affected by dementia. The workshop will also address typical changes that happen in the early\, middle\, and late stages of the condition including the final care concerns. \nWorkshop Objectives: \n\nCompare and contrast normal aging versus not normal aging related to various cognitive functions.\nDescribe the five sensory input and processing systems\, highlighting the dominant role of vision\, and the major differences between protective and discriminating sensation in each.\nDiscuss the impact of changing sensory awareness and processing as dementia progresses.\nDemonstrate how to communicate well with people living with dementia and practice de-escalation strategies for dealing with behaviors. \n\nPresenter: Courtney DiMaggio\, RN\, Positive Approach to Care Certified Independent Trainer  \nBorn and raised on the island of Molokaʻi\, Courtney DiMaggio is a devoted wife\, mother\, and daughter\, as well as a dedicated Registered Nurse.
