Wed. February 9th
Navigating the 3 D's: Dementia, Delirium, Depression (Virtual)

Sponsored By:  Brightview Woodburn
Speaker: With Joanna Frankel, MSW, LCSW-C
Time:  9 am to 12:30 PM
PROGRAM:  Dementia, delirium, and depression often coexist in elderly clients. Failure to assess and recognize the differences and similarities between these issues can result in serious harm to clients properly cognitively. Delirium, often a medical emergency, needs to be recognized and treated immediately. Medical professionals may attribute acute cognitive changes to chronic cognitive disorders. This lecture provides a clear and simple approach to understanding the etiology, presentation and corrective actions necessary for managing this common co-morbidity.
