Thank you for your interest in our Professional Education offerings.  Our Dementia Care training program is based upon the National Dementia Care Practice Recommendations.  Participants learn care approaches through role playing exercises and lively discussions using realistic film clips and case studies.  Our aim is to train health care providers to provide the best possible dementia care.  These courses are designed specifically for the Licensed Health Care Professional.  Join us for these community-based classes geared to refresh or increase your care giving skills and earn Continuing Education Units.
