Preserving Personhood


Preserving Personhood:

 Education and Information for Caregivers of Individuals with Dementia

 

Monday, December 14th from 1:00-2:00PM

Wood County Senior Center

 

Taught by a Bowling Green State University, 4th year Honors Student.

 

We all have aspects about ourselves that make us who we are; our personalities, clothing choices, what we like to eat and do, among many other things. Unfortunately, the dementia disease can hinder individuals impacted by the disease with the capabilities to live out these personal identity manifestations and choices. Come learn about the idea of “personhood”, how it is impacted by the dementia disease, and how you as a caregiver can best encourage and preserve personhood in someone you may be caring for now or in the future.
