The Empowered Caregiver: Communicating Effectively

If you're caring for someone with dementia, you know how challenging conversations can become. This presentation from the Greater Richmond Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association breaks down how dementia impacts the way people communicate—and more importantly, what you can do about it. You'll walk away with practical strategies for having more meaningful exchanges with your loved one, whether you're talking with family members, friends, or the medical team involved in their care. This hour-long session is designed for adult caregivers and seniors who want to strengthen their communication skills during this demanding journey. It's a straightforward, informative talk that gives you real tools you can use right away. The program takes place at the Varina Area Library and is part of the library's Health & Wellness offerings.
