Learn how to best communicate with Alzheimer's patients for effective relationships.

Are you finding it challenging to connect with a loved one who has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s? As the disease progresses, communication can become increasingly difficult, leading to frustration, misunderstandings, and emotional strain for both you and your loved one.

Join us for a supportive and informative workshop designed to help you navigate these challenges with greater confidence and compassion. This session will explore:

  • Effective communication strategies to foster meaningful interactions and reduce frustration
  • How to interpret verbal and nonverbal cues to better understand what your loved one is trying to express
  • Tips for maintaining patience and empathy while adapting to their changing communication needs

Led by experts in dementia care, this workshop will provide practical tools and insights to enhance your ability to connect with your loved one, strengthening your relationship and improving their quality of life. Whether you're a family member, friend, or caregiver, this session offers valuable guidance to help you communicate with warmth, clarity, and understanding.

This program is in partnership with the Charles County Department of Health.
