Due to popular demand, we are reprising Katya De Luisa’s talk An Exploration of Dementia as a virtual event. This will be a one-hour talk with thirty minutes allotted for questions and answers. Please register below in order to receive the Zoom link.
Is someone you love at risk for or already struggling with dementia? Are you ready to learn how to best understand and support them?
As a dementia educator and caregiver coach for over 23 years, Katya De Luisa provides information and training centered on holistic approaches to eldercare. Her book, “Journey through the Infinite Mind: The Science and Spirituality of Dementia”, has been published in both English and Spanish and is a forerunner of its kind.
Katya is presently the coordinator of the volunteer Dementia Education Initiative for Rural Costa Rica for Tico families living in outlying areas of the country.
After this event, you will be able to:
- Identify causes and symptoms of dementia
- Learn about healthy brain function and how it’s affected by dementia
- Understand dementia behaviors
- Value the importance of heart-based communication
- Empathize with what the person with dementia is experiencing
Entrance cost:
Free (this virtual event will be offered free of charge!)
