DESCRIPTION:Do you have a loved one in your life with Dementia? Join us at the library on June 23 for a Dementia LIVE training. This will be an interactive\, hands-on training that helps you see the world through the eyes of someone living with dementia. Please sign up for a 20 minute demonstration and walk away with resources\, support\, and a community.\nDementia Live is an immersive\, high-impact simulation that helps care teams experience the sensory and cognitive challenges faced by people living with dementia. By mimicking symptoms such as tunnel vision\, impaired processing\, and altered touch\, caregivers develop deeper empathy – and ultimately\, provide more compassionate\, person-centered care.\nJulia Mauder\, Dementia Outreach Specialist will be here on site with equipment from https://area10agency.org/dementia-outreach/\nThis is a FREE program and all material will be supplied.\nAges: 18+ (adults)\nLocation: Meeting Rooms AB\nTime: 6-8pm\nRegistration is required.
