Meadowlark, UFM, and K-State Global Campus have teamed up to offer a new course titled Caregiving for Your Loved One with Dementia.
The number of people affected by dementia and memory-support needs is growing every day, and as a result, the need for caregiver resources is evident. This six-week class will be offered through four online modules and two half-day live trainings. The lead instructor is Dr. Matt Floersch, a Manhattan-area primary-care physician who has many years of experience working with aging adults. Dr. Floersch is joined by several guest instructors, including: Heather Sloan, APRN; Michelle Haub, MS, CCC-SLP, Bridget Larkin, LMSW; and Rita Harsch, Financial Counselor.
The class will begin on Monday, Oct. 7, 2019. Enrollment is open now and can be completed by visiting https://noncreditksu.catalog.instructure.com/browse/k-stateglobalcampusnoncreditprograms. The live training sessions are scheduled for Monday, Nov. 4th, and Tuesday, Nov. 5th. The cost of the class is $75.
Caring for a loved one with memory-support needs can be an overwhelming, exhausting, and confusing experience. Let Meadowlark support you and your loved one in living your best life despite cognitive changes.
