You too can join the conversations by asking questions of Carmen and her guests. Carmen's smart look at culture change focuses on a wide variety of topics. She brings an insider's view of regulations, and reports on little changes happening in government, in attitude, in practice. Each month she will share culture change news and updates, amusing and heartwarming stories, and interview a guest on a relevant and timely topic.

How can we have a relationship with the people we love or care for, who are living with dementia?
We’ll discuss approaches to support daily activities from self care to eating to pursuing leisure.
In our last conversation we detailed the five human needs of comfort, identity, inclusion, attachment and occupation. This show will have a special focus on the human need of occupation. We’ll discuss specific ways and techniques to help persons living with dementia continue as much of their normal, daily occupation as possible.
We encourage communities to invite family members and friends of your residents living with dementia, to join you for this webinar. Make it a party!
For those who support someone living at home with dementia, gather family and friends together for this webinar.
