Description

Rollin Wright, Janice Whitaker, and Peg Chabala describe a training course for people who care for a family member with dementia, in a 2023 report. The course grew out of a Medicare visit type that pairs a memory check with a care plan. A mixed team built four workshops around brain changes, behaviour as a form of talk, local help, and planning ahead.

The workshops ran in three rural and suburban areas in central Pennsylvania and drew close to one hundred and fifty people in total. About one in six came to all four sessions. More than eight in ten said they gained knowledge and skills at each session. Many asked for a way to stay in touch and keep getting support after the course ended.
