Intervening when it comes to dementia behaviors is no easy task! You are expected to provide compassionate care while achieving optimal patient outcomes, maintaining a secure/safe environment, while at the same time recognizing that the healthcare team may well be suffering from compassion fatigue symptoms themselves. This video based training by Catherine Wollman, DNP, CRNP, GNP-BC, will give you the tools to regain some control in the day. With new and effective tips and ideas, you can help patients and families to identify the underlying cause of the presenting behavior. Armed with that important information, a plan can be devised to decrease the overall incidence of the behaviors that have become a concern. Don’t delay….you will return to work, armed with a brand new skill set to truly provide assistance for your patients with dementia!
