Communication allows us to express our thoughts, beliefs and wishes, and plays an important role in shaping relationships.
For caregivers of a person with dementia, communication is vital, but can become increasingly difficult. To help family caregivers in Sechelt, the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. is presenting a free tele-workshop on Thursday, May 26, at 7 p.m.
Entitled Understanding Com-munication, the workshop explores how communication is affected by dementia, and offers insights about effective communication strategies and ways of providing care that focus on the needs of the person.
Pre-registration is required by May 23 to participate.
