Training programs

The Alzheimer’s Association’s new comprehensive training programs will help you improve the quality of care for people with dementia in assisted living residences and nursing homes. Our affordable training programs offer you and your staff interactive customized instruction that delivers practical skill-building techniques, and have been tested in residential care settings.

Training is based on the Alzheimer’s Association publication, Dementia Care Practice Recommendations for Assisted Living Residences and Nursing Homes, and stress the importance of developing greater personal relationships with residents. Direct care workers who understand both Alzheimer symptoms and the individual resident can make better decisions about the most effective method for providing care.
