The Daily Astorian - 3/10/2018

Oregon Care Partners is offering Positive Approach to Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care (PAC) workshops in Seaside and Astoria, presented by an Oregon Care Partners PAC certified trainer. These workshops are free to those who live or work in Oregon, and each workshop is worth 2.5 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for qualified professionals.

The first training is from 1 to 4 p.m. Monday at the Best Western Plus Ocean View Resort, Lewis and Clark 1 Meeting Room, 414 N. Prom in Seaside. Check-in starts at 12:30 p.m. To register, go to bit.ly/2oV0h9M. The second workshop is from 9 a.m. to noon Tuesday at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites, 204 W. Marine Drive in Astoria. Check-in begins at 8:30 a.m. To register, go to bit.ly/2oKyNV7. The Positive Approach teaches hands-on skills and will help caregivers understand and connect more effectively with people living with dementia who are experiencing changing abilities. These newly learned skills will enable caregivers to shift from simply “dealing with the behaviors” to creating a positive and caring environment.
