Promote Healthy Cognitive Aging Across the Lifespan!
Every 67 seconds, someone develops Alzheimer's disease. Five million Americans live with Alzheimer's disease—and this number increases when other types of dementia are included. The number of individuals with Alzheimer's disease and other types of dementia will increase dramatically in the coming decades as the baby boomers get older and live longer. During the course of their illness, many individuals with dementia experience significant affective and behavioral difficulties that create stress for families and caregivers who provide over 17 billion hours of care to individuals with dementia each year. Many of these individuals come to the attention of mental health clinicians as patients and families seeking assistance, intervention, and guidance in coping with the illness.
Dr. James Beauregard provides clinicians with evidence-based knowledge and tools for addressing the numerous problems that arise for individuals and their families dealing with dementia. Participants will discover cutting-edge research in Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, including current research on early detection, biomarkers, and neuroimaging technologies, as well as assessment tools and techniques for early identification of dementia. Attendees will walk away with strategies to address problematic behaviors in dementia, support individuals contending with a new dementia diagnosis, coordinate care with other professionals, and work with families as they struggle with the many challenges that emerge in dementing illness.
