Virtual Event: The Effects of Social Isolation on Those Living with Dementia

The goal of maintaining social distancing boundaries to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 virus is challenging for all individuals, but is typically even more so for those living with dementia. Join Senior Helpers on Thursday, June 18 for a webinar focusing on dementia and care during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Teepa Snow, owner and CEO of Positive Approach to Care, LLC, and Peter Ross, CEO and co-founder of Senior Helpers, will:

• Highlight the serious effects that social isolation may have on those living with brain change, including the development of depression and anxiety
• Address how to recognize the signs and symptoms of depression and anxiety in those living with dementia
• Help care providers recognize and respond more accurately to unwanted effects of social isolation to reduce the chances for escalation and 'non-helpful' hospitalizations

This event is FREE to attend and will be held virtually via GoToWebinar. Register here.
