- "Dealing with Difficult Families"
This
activity will enhance the participant's ability to interact with distressed
and challenging types of families with increased comfort, professionalism,
and compassion. Attendees will be able to identify the characteristics of
10 specific types of these families and implement specific tools for dealing
with each one in order to enhance the overall care to their patients. These
skills are generalizable to all settings; however, the content was developed
with a geriatric patient/ adult child or elder spouse focus in mind.
- "Ethical Considerations in Artificial Nutrition & Hydration at End of
Life"
This activity will enhance the attendee's ability to identify the
psychosocial and cultural variables effecting decisions re: nutrition and
hydration and identify pros and cons of artificial nutrition and hydration
at end of life. Techniques for communicating with families and members of
the interdisciplinary team will be provided to increase the participant’s
ability to advocate for the patient’s wishes.
- "Dealing with Dementia"
This activity will enhance the participant's ability to interact and
effectively communicate with patients with dementia in a variety of settings
from ER to Long Term Care to home care settings while learning to advocate
for proper diagnostics and treatment approaches. Information on the latest
research on causative factors and drug trials for Alzheimer’s Disease in
general and behavioral escalations in particular will be presented along
with specific techniques for behavioral management including de-escalation,
minimizing sundowning, behavioral analysis, and validation with an overall
emphasis on enhancing the dignity & independence of the person with
dementia. The latest information on the Alzheimer’s Association’s 2005
