Description
Lewy Body Dementia impacts 1.4 million Americans yet it is still widely misunderstood. Join us for this eye-opening interactive conversation on how Lewy Body dementia is different from Alzheimer’s disease and other irreversible causes of dementia. Diagnosing, treatments, risk factors and best practices for treating patients will be explored.
This course is suitable for both beginning and intermediate levels. There is relevance as it provides information on what makes Lewy Body Disease different from other dementias and behaviors associated. It also applies to intermediate levels as it expands upon the introductory level, focusing on the strategies and insights into the causes and method for working with individuals as symptoms & behaviors arise.
