With the medical advances of the 21st Century, more of us can look forward to the prospect of added years to our lives and those of our loved ones. Yet, we also face the increased risks for developing those diseases that tend to inflict the older population. Alzheimer's Disease is one of the diseases that is still a mystery to medical science as researchers and healthcare professionals diligently work to unravel questions about this disease that affects an increasingly significant portion of our senior population.
With such a significant portion of our population facing the prospect of this devastating disease, researchers, educators, social workers, and nursing home and retirement community staff face a great challenge. This challenge is to determine and implement support that builds on:
- the existing abilities of the individual with Alzheimer's Disease
- compensates for current limitations
- provides care that offers the greatest quality of life throughout each stage of the disease
Through this continuing education course, you will discover a holistic approach to Alzheimer’s Disease, including the disease process and how to work with and care for patients with Alzheimer’s Disease.
