Communication is more than talking and listening-it's also sending and receiving messages through attitude, tone of voice, facial expressions, and body language. Join us to explore how communication takes place when someone has Alzheimer's disease. Learn to decode the verbal and behavioral messages delivered by someone with dementia, and identify strategies to help you connect and communicate at each stage of the disease.
