Description of CE Program/Activity
 When dementia and vision loss intersect, everyday interactions can become more complex for both clients and staff. This interactive workshop builds foundational understanding of dementia, common brain changes, and behaviour shifts that may impact vision loss support.Participants will explore practical communication strategies, learn how to reduce distress and conflict, and practice real-life scenarios through role-play. The session also highlights the vital role of family caregivers and offers guidance on how to support them with clarity, empathy, and confidence.
