Caring for older adults with dementia requires compassion, along with clinical expertise to ensure safety, dignity, and quality of life. Many healthcare professionals struggle to manage the complex needs of dementia patients, especially when it comes to medication management and symptom control.
This one day intensive training program will empower you with essential tools to differentiate dementia types, conduct cognitive assessments, and develop effective care plans, both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic. By the end, you’ll not only feel confident in managing dementia care but will also earn your Evergreen Certified Dementia Care Specialist (ECDCS) certification.
CERTIFICATION MADE SIMPLE!
Attendees will receive documentation of ECDCS designation from Evergreen Certifications 4 to 6 weeks following the program. *Professional standards apply. Visit for professional requirements
