Dementia/Alzheimer Training 02/25/2010
Today I started my Dementia/ Alzheimer's training. When Beverly Bartlett was over at Porter House giving us an "Demential/ Alzheimer in house training" last week, she mentioned how Porter House would be a great place for a person with Dementia or Alzheimer's. So I decided to take the training that is offered on the Alzheimer's website. After Patty and I are finished with the training, I will apply to have Dementia and Alzheimer's clients added to the license of Porter House. I did 5 hours of the training today and plan to do the remainder tommorow. So far the training is very good. It is done through the internet. Their are several videos showing actual life situations and gives advice on how to deal with them. I believe the training is very well worth the cost and time. The cost is actually very reasonable and I would recommend it for all family members of a person whom has Dementia or Alzheimer's. If you are from the Green Bay, Shawano, WI area and have any questions about Dementia or Alzheimer's feel free to contact Beverly Bartlett, she is a great lady and wonderful teacher.
