Dementia 101

Triple-R provides a series of workshops called Triple-R University with the goal of increasing awareness and understanding of what it is like to live with dementia. The first workshop in the series is called Dementia 101. At the end of the three hour workshop, you will:

  • Understand the difference between normal aging and dementia
  • Be able to recognize the symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease and other dementias
  • Know the common causes of dementia and what you can do to minimize your risk of getting dementia.
  • Understand the process of how a person becomes diagnosed with dementia
  • Have a basic understanding of the effects of dementia on the brain, functioning and behavior

We have a workshop coming up and would love to see you!
