Write a commentCaregiving in itself is challenging, but can become more complicated by dementia-related behaviors in the older adult. To provide caregivers with some useful strategies, Bishop's Commons Enriched Living Residence in Oswego will host a caregiver educational program presented by the Alzheimer's Association of CNY.
The educational program entitled, "Managing Challenging Behaviors," will offer attendees a three-point approach to address challenging behaviors such as wandering, repetitive questions, agitation and other behavioral symptoms.
The educational program will take place beginning at 6 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 7, at Bishop's Commons Enriched Living Residence, located at 4 Burkle St., in Oswego.
The educational program is free of charge and open to the public. Register by calling 315-596-4016, ext. 125.
