Caring for someone with Dementia can be challenging. If you or someone you know is a caregiver for someone with dementia, a virtual online event on Thursday, Aug. 18, at noon can provide essential guidance.

The workshop focuses on helping people recognize the stress process and learn to interrupt it early in the cycle, before it escalates.

Individual stress management techniques are discussed, as well as a specific model for understanding the effects of stress on emotions, brains and bodies.

This presentation also includes tips for interacting with loved ones with dementia as well as information on caregiver stress and burnout.

AARP membership not required, and the workshop is free with all ages welcome, but registration is required and can be done at aarp.cventevents.com/event/2b0a0165-f7d1-4685-9f22-d6aafafe1390/regProcessStep1.
