Mailed - 6 PDUs - Description: This course discusses the principles underlying a person-center care approach for therapists and nurses that seeks to preserve the self-identity of the individual with dementia in order to minimize the destructive nature of the disease and optmize functional independence. The course describes a model for actualizing such care through a mealtime program, that can be generalized over into other areas of care. Includes a text by Grethe Berg, The Importance of Food and Mealtime in Dementia Care: The Table is Set.
