Home Care Assistance to Host Webinar for Caregivers on Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care

October 22, 2015 // Franchising.com // Palo Alto, CA –  Home Care Assistance, the premier provider of in-home care for seniors, is committed to equipping family caregivers with the resources and tools they need to provide the best care possible for their aging love ones, while simultaneously protecting their own health. In observance of both Alzheimer’s Awareness Month and Family Caregivers Month in November, the next installment in the company’s Healthy Longevity webinar series is ideal for individuals caring for someone with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia.

Led by Kae Hammond, Founder and President of the Dementia Help Center, author of Pathways: A Guidebook for Dementia & Alzheimer’s Family Caregivers and host of “The Kae Hammond Show: Care for The Family Caregiver”, the hour-long webinar will cover the following topics:

Reasons for Memory ‘Glitches”

  • It’s All About the “L’s” (Learn, Live, Link, Laugh, Listen, Love)
  • Understanding the Disease(s)
  • Caring for your Loved One
  • Caring for Yourself: Physically, Mentally, Emotionally, Spiritually
  • Sharing the Care

The webinar will be held on Thursday, November 19th at 10:00 AM Pacific, 1:00 PM Eastern. The presenter will reserve the last 15 minutes of the webinar for a Q&A session, so we encourage webinar attendees to come prepared with questions. Space is limited, so make sure to reserve your seat as soon as possible by registering here: homecareassistance.com/dementia-webinar.

“My mission is to offer family caregivers pathways to new knowledge about Alzheimer’s and dementias in order to let go of their fear, anxiety, and sense of helplessness,” said Kae Hammond. “To thrive, not just survive the journey.”
