You will connect with others to develop effective strategies to reduce responsive behaviours.

This innovative education program aims to:

  • Increase care partner confidence
  • Enhance well-being of both the care partner and those experiencing behaviour changes

Eligibility

Participants in this program should be providing care for a person with dementia experiencing responsive behaviours. Participants will have taken prior dementia education through the Society, such as our Family Caregiver Education Series.
