Community Dementia Workshop: Let’s Talk Communication

“Most people think a dementia diagnosis should not be hidden; however, many would keep it a secret.”    “Close to half of the people with dementia stated others had avoided or shunned them.”

These quotes from the World Alzheimer’s Report 2019 tell a sad story about the way people with dementia are treated.  Together, we can dispel the myths and stigma about dementia.

Join Dr. Michelle Kimzey, Assistant Professor of Nursing at TCU’s Harris College of Nursing,  to learn:

• Dementia basics
• Effective communication: tips and techniques
• Getting on with life: conversations with a person with dementia and their care partner

Pre-Workshop option:  Experience dementia
