This month, we are continuing our partnership with LeadingAge Southeast and LeadingAge Oregon to provide two new webinars for our members.
Join LeadingAge Southeast on April 17 for the final session of their Dementia Care 101 series, Distressed Reactions: Finding a Creative Approach. This advanced session will explore how cognitive changes, and environmental triggers can exacerbate distress and how the behavior of caregivers, staff, and family members significantly impacts these reactions. Participants will examine the complex interplay between communication styles, emotional cues, and cognitive impairments to better understand how missteps can unintentionally increase fear and anxiety. Through case studies and real-world scenarios, attendees will gain actionable strategies to de-escalate distressed reactions by employing advanced engagement techniques and adapting communication approaches. Register for this webinar here.
Not able to join us at the Spring Conference, but looking for some CEs? LeadingAge Oregon has you covered with Elevate Care: Mastering Documentation Best Practices in Aging Services on April 22. This session will delve into the critical best practices for documentation that ensure legal compliance and facilitate seamless coordination among healthcare professionals. Discover strategies and tools to elevate your documentation standards, optimize team communication, and deliver superior resident care. Register for this webinar here.
