Aging in Place: How to Create a Dementia-Friendly Home
Wednesday, December 11, 2024, 1300 - 1430
We know your caregiving journey can be challenging in all kinds of ways. That's why AARP Virginia and Insight Memory Care Center are delighted to invite you to our monthly Care Partner Class.
For a person coping with dementia, living at home can provide a sense of independence. By making some changes to your home to minimize the chances of confusion and improve safety, such as adding better lighting and simple flooring, you can often continue to age in place with dementia and maintain the routines and activities you enjoy.
Find out what you can do to create a more dementia-friendly home. The presenter is Lisa Bagby, an occupational therapist, educator, health administrator and advocate who has a passion for helping people age in place.
This class, which is not an AARP event, will be held in person in Fairfax, Virginia, as well as online for virtual viewers. Those attending virtually will be able to ask questions via the chat feature.
How to Join
You will be given the opportunity to select virtual or in-person attendance when you register here with the Insight Memory Care Center and will receive an email with the Zoom link before the session. Any information you provide on the host organization's platform will be governed by its privacy policies.
