CAPC’s ✨new✨ Best Practices in Dementia Care and Caregiver Support courses >> https://ow.ly/em5M50SEnIa Individuals living with #dementia have complex care needs and long periods of reliance on the support of their loved ones and other caregivers. While there are no evidence-based treatments that cure or reverse dementia, clinicians can and should take action to improve the quality of life for these vulnerable patients and their caregivers. These new CE courses, one of which is open-to-all, offer clinicians from various specialties and disciplines training on how to: 🔹 Effectively communicate with patients and their loved ones about a dementia diagnosis 🔹 Help families understand what to expect and how to prepare for the future 🔹 Interpret and address behavioral symptoms 🔹 Manage common medical issues 🔹 Navigate difficult care decisions 🔹 Support the caregivers of people living with dementia CAPC members, if you have taken our previous Dementia courses, you can take these courses and earn new CE/CME credits. Free ABIM Maintenance of Certification (MOC) credits are also available for physicians. hpm #hapc #healthcare #dementia
