SafeCare BC workshop provides core care training for dementia

On July 19th, SafeCare BC will be conducting a workshop titled “Creating Connections: Working with People with Dementia” at Elim Village, Surrey.

This course aims to help you better understand Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia; receive key tips for communication; and learn how to be creative in dealing with some of the behaviours common among people living with dementia.

The information will be presented within the context of “person-centred care”. Through lectures, interactive discussions and video clips, you will gain the tools to feel safe as a caregiver and gain confidence in providing the best care possible.

The course is intended to provide core care training for dementia, including how dementia impacts people physically, mentally and socially, and is recommended for individuals working in the continuing care sector.
