| This workshop will introduce activities and techniques to improve the quality of life for the person with Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The presenter will demonstrate how activities can be modified to patient's changing abilities. These techniques will help participants develop activities that work for all ability levels. Participants will learn and implement therapeutic activities, which have the potential to reduce the severity of impact of AD on both patients and caregivers. See the presenter for session CEUs offered through NCCAP. |
