Please list any comments or feedback about the Dementia Friends Session that you would like to share.

I really enjoyed this training and wish I would've known about it sooner! One of my professors in college shared this training and it is especially helpful because I have been a caregiver for an individual with dementia for two years and will definitely be more aware of the key points to remember while having interactions with individuals who have dementia. The 20 seconds to process fact really opened my eyes to how important it is to allow enough time for responses. Thank you for the well organized and thorough training!
