Better Communication in Dementia Care
Practical strategies to build trust, ease anxiety, and strengthen connections.

Turn everyday conversations into opportunities for connection.
Communication is the heart of caregiving. For people living with dementia, even everyday conversations can feel overwhelming when messages are rushed, unclear, or delivered without sensitivity. This course helps care partners and teams move beyond correction toward empathy—learning how to listen actively, simplify interactions, and create moments of calm and understanding.
