Alzheimer's Association offers free community education program at ALMH
Effective Communication Strategies

[May 02, 2019]  The community is invited to attend a free community education program sponsored by the local Alzheimers Assoiciation.  The 90 minute event will be held on May 8th from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital in Lincoln

Communication is more than just talking and listening – it’s also about sending and receiving messages through attitude, tone of voice, facial expressions and body language.

As people with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias progress in their journey and the ability to use words is lost, families need new ways to connect. Join us to explore how communication takes place when someone has Alzheimer’s, learn to decode the verbal and behavioral messages delivered by someone with dementia, and identify strategies to help you connect and communicate at each stage of the disease.

This program is 90 minutes and includes time for questions and answers.
