I really enjoyed the training. I did not see the links to resources she mentioned on the last video, but am guessing they will come after I fill out this form. Finding the training on the website was challenging so making it better labeled on the website would be helpful for future trainees! I feel like I have good strategies to approach somebody with dementia, communicate with them, and have a better idea of other things to watch out for-physically offering support for navigating around obstacles, etc. I am excited to share this with a friend of mine whose mom was recently diagnosed with dementia.
