About This Event
The Agitation In Alzheimer’s Screener For Caregivers (AASC™): How Caregivers Can Use This New Screener To Recognize The Breadth Of Agitation Symptoms & Facilitate Conversations With Healthcare Professionals
As a follow-up to the previous webinar, “An Introduction to the AASCTM,” this webinar will re-ground on the current landscape of Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) and the negative impact agitation in Alzheimer’s dementia (AAD) has on both caregivers and patients. Additionally, it will introduce guidance on how caregivers should use the AASCTM to support patients. During this session, presenters will provide a didactic overview and engage in role-playing scenarios to illustrate how community caregivers can use the AASCTM to facilitate a conversation with their health care provider (HCP).
