How to Talk to Someone With Dementia

Learn how to communicate with someone with cognitive loss, Alzheimer's, or dementia. Presenter: Diana Waugh, BSN, RN, CDP You may contact Diana at: [email protected] Nationally renowned memory care consultant Diana Waugh shares her personal experience and the mistakes she made as a caregiver for her mother. During this intimate conversation with caregivers who are struggling and need help in caring for their loved ones with dementia, Diana shares effective ways to avoid the "traps" caregivers often fall into when trying to communicate with their loved ones. She encourages caregivers to engage all the senses when talking with loved ones in order to have more effective conversations. Diana believes we must set aside expectations and learn how to interact with our loved ones based on how they are now, not how they used to be. These recommendations as well as specific examples are also found in the second edition of her popular book, “I Was Thinking…Unlocking the Door to Successful Conversations with Loved Ones with Cognitive Loss.” Visit mmlearn.org to see more videos and read our informative caregivers' blog.
