The Dementia Epidemic: Screening Negligence Corrected for Early-Stage Interventions

$129.99 Standard

Dementia isn’t just on the horizon – it’s already here, growing faster than our healthcare system can handle. By mid-century, dementia rates are expected to triple, putting more pressure on healthcare professionals and leaving more families desperate for answers. But dementia care isn’t just about memory; it’s about preserving function. If you can help a patient remember their medication routine or navigate the grocery store independently for even a little longer, you’ve given them something invaluable: more time with their independence.

Unfortunately, many professionals still believe the outdated myth that “there’s nothing we can do.” In this session, neuropsychologist Dr. Sherrie All will dismantle that myth and share practical, evidence-based strategies you can use right away to build cognitive reserve, slow functional decline, and support patients and their families through the challenges of early-stage dementia.

You’ll learn how to identify the subtle signs of cognitive decline sooner, so you can intervene when it matters most. Discover how to connect specific cognitive deficits – like memory lapses or attention challenges – with real-world struggles, such as missed appointments or medication errors. And gain tools to educate families, reduce their confusion, and empower them to take a proactive role in care.

What You’ll Walk Away With:

  • Techniques to spot early-stage dementia sooner and apply tailored interventions to slow cognitive decline
  • Practical tools to help patients manage tasks like medication routines, navigation, and household organization
  • Strategies to communicate complex brain changes with clarity, so families feel informed and equipped to help

Dementia is a growing crisis – but you don’t have to sit on the sidelines. Join us and learn how you can make a tangible difference in your patients’’ daily lives, giving them the tools to remain engaged, independent, and connected
