Some
Truths Revealed in Dr. Steinberg’s Seminars:
(dates and times listed at bottom of page)
1. A
person you know and love may be slipping away or may
"no longer be there".
2. Proper
evaluation is key, and you need help in recognizing
the difference between normal aging and cognitive
decline so you can help to accurately diagnose, support,
and care for your loved one.
3. You
need to answer your own questions and preconceptions
about Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of
Dementia in order to more meaningfully and effectively
address whether your loved one has Alzheimer’s
Disease or another type of Dementia. This helps you
face your loved one's true condition more realistically,
rather than weigh you down with false hope.
4. The
process of discovering the truth about Alzheimer’s
Disease and Dementia is like a light from a lighthouse
that takes you out of the darkness of your own misconceptions.
As
a person progresses through the stages of Alzheimer's
Disease, there are clear changes that occur - psychological,
cognitive, and behavioral. Caregivers struggle to
1) see and 2) accept these changes, which are integral
to providing meaningful and invaluable care. In his
Seminars, Dr. Steinberg explains, in detail, how to
overcome these personal struggles.
