About this listen

Have you struggled with caring for older adults living with dementia? Do you find it challenging or confusing to work around some behaviors they display? We are back with expert Dalyce Gouin (RPN with Interior Health) who will start the episode with a powerful exercise to get you into the mindset of a person living with a neurocognitive disease-who maybe is resistant or having a hard time with a plan of care. Then building off of last week when we covered the 8A’s of dementia Dalyce will share a story about how she was creative in a stressful

moment and helped support a resident with major neurocognitive disorder.


Need to know more? In our final Part 3, Dalyce will review the top 10 unmet needs of someone who may have difficulty communicating them. She will also discuss the 'hygiene crisis' we often see today in healthcare (can personal care wait?)


Join us for this informative and empowering series of episodes as we continue to learn how to provide compassionate, patient-centered care for those living with dementia.
