The Empowered Caregiver – Communicating Effectively: Grief, Coping, and the Holiday Season
As people living with dementia progress in their journey and lose the ability to use words, caregivers can discover new ways to communicate effectively in any stage of the disease. Learn how dementia affects communication, how person-centered approaches can improve communication and much more. Join us for a heartfelt program with Bereavement & Spiritual Care Coordinator, Walt Weiss of Kauaʻi Hospice, as he discusses self-care, anticipatory grief, and navigating the holiday season with compassion for yourself, your family, and the loved one living with dementia.
