Person Centered Goal Discovery for People Living With Dementia Tuesday, May 18, 2021 1:00-2:00 PM ET Webinar Registration Supports for people living with dementia and their families are most effective when they are person-centered and the result of a thoughtful planning process that considers what is important to them. When guiding providers on how to deliver high quality support, it is important to use a clear and engaging approach to discover and address people's priorities as dementia progresses. This webinar will present foundational person-centered principles, and provide examples of how to plan for people who are living with dementia in the community and other settings. Speakers: -
