Dementia Training Excerpt: Staff & Family Support and Neglect Prevention

This episode is a brief excerpt from an eight-hour, day-long training program given by Certified Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia Care Trainers (CADDCT®) for the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners (NCCDP). This training is required for people to become Certified Dementia Practitioners (CDP®). In this clip, Attorney Julie Steinbacher, who is a CADDCT and a CDP, discusses the challenges that are present for those professionals and family members that are caregivers to people with dementia, and possible solutions, as well as things to look out for with respect to elder abuse and neglect. While the CDP® designation is primarily intended for professionals that work with people with dementia in the senior services industry, anyone that is interested is welcome to participate in the training program. Our law firm usually conducts 2-3 such trainings per year. If you are interested in participating in a future CDP training given by our firm, email us at [email protected].
