Health & Wellness - Dementia and Effective Communication Strategies

As people with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia progress in their journey and the ability to use words is lost, families need new ways to connect. The Alzheimer's Association will help you explore how communication takes place when someone has Alzheimer's. You will learn to decode the verbal and behavioral messages delivered by someone with dementia, and identify strategies to help you connect and communicate at each stage of the disease.
