Description

Contrary to myths and stereotypes about older adults, most are reasonable and straightforward to work with. But when we encounter older adults and their families who are unreasonable, we frequently feel like they are taking up all of our time and energy. This interactive workshop will help participants understand why some older adults and their family caregivers are unreasonable and build empathy for those difficult clients. This workshop will also assist participants provide the best treatment to these clients while protecting themselves from burnout.
