Alzheimer Society<br />
When a person in the Kootenays living with dementia moves<br />
into long-term care, attending care conferences becomes part<br />
of the process, ensuring that everyone involved in the care<br />
team provides the best care possible. The Alzheimer Society of<br />
BC is helping local families make the most of the conferences.<br />
It’s offering a new webinar, Understanding Care Conferences.<br />
The Alzheimer Society has invited Dr. Gloria Puurveen and<br />
Dr. Heather Cooke to speak about their experiences with families<br />
affected by dementia and discuss what to expect at a care<br />
conference. The session will cover what questions to ask, what<br />
documentation is needed in advance, and tips for effective<br />
communication with the care team.<br />
As a researcher who is passionate about understanding the<br />
experiences of older adults and people living with dementia,<br />
Dr. Puurveen focuses on dementia experiences in relation to<br />
“living well” to the end of life, personhood and social citizenship.<br />
Dr. Cooke has more than 25 years of experience working<br />
in dementia care, in both a front-line and research capacity.<br />
Previously a research associate at the UBC School of Nursing,<br />
she now works at the Alzheimer Society of B.C., where she<br />
leads the organization’s knowledge mobilization efforts.<br />
The free online session takes place on Wednesday, <strong>May</strong> 18 at<br />
2 pm. To register visit alzbc.org/care-conference.<br />
Upcoming webinar sessions available to Kootenays families<br />
and caregivers also include:<br />
