Caring Conversations is an online forum for care partners of people living with dementia to learn from experts, share concerns and ask questions.

Join a conversation with social worker Lucy Barylak and professional coach and educator Joanne Besner about topics that are important to care partners. After an educational presentation by the hosts, there will be an opportunity to share your own concerns and ask questions.

The Caring Conversations platform permits people to participate online and by telephone. When you register, you will be provided with a link to join online, and a phone number if you prefer to call in. You will need to register online to receive the link and call-in number.

The next episode of Caring Conversations is on October 22, 2024 at 11 a.m. on the topic of How to manage hallucinations, delusions and paranoia associated with dementia.

Joanne and Lucy will explain the difference between these troubling experiences, why they occur with dementia, and provide some tips on how to respond to each situation.
