This is a wonderfully deep course and I would recommend all care team members should take this course.
Great lectures with helpful, timely discussions. Highly recommended even for individuals expecting to care for elderly parents with dementia.
The course provided a comprehensive overview of dementia. I especially the list of readings and resources provided by the presenters.
This course helps me to broaden my knowledge in dementia care. I do find the explanation is clear, the example given is applicable, and there are many updated aricles you can read... so satisfying.
