Track 3
303 - Integrating Therapy into Dementia Care Management
Michelle Lucas-Webb , OTR/L, RAC-CT, CAPS
It is estimated that 5.3 million Americans have Alzheimer’s disease. As our population ages, it is imperative that health care professionals develop strategies and techniques to appropriately provide quality care to this unique population. The purpose of this educational session is to provide therapists and other health care professionals with an understanding of the standardized cognitive assessments that can be utilized to determine a patient’s cognitive baseline; to understand the interdisciplinary role in the care of those who have dementia; and to identify strategies and practical approaches to maximize function and quality of life for those who have dementia.
