NN Dementia Friendly Training<br /><br />Northampton Neighbors endorses the goal of&#160;Dementia Friendly Massachusetts&#160;(DFM) to increase the number of municipalities around the Commonwealth that commit to supporting those living with dementia, their families, and care partners.<br />&#160;<br />All dementia-friendly communities share one thing: a commitment to make their neighborhood inclusive, welcoming those touched by dementia to continue to be active, contributing citizens.<br /><br />Learning about dementia is key to reaching the shared goal of DFM. Please consider becoming a Dementia Friend, someone committed to being mindful and respectful toward people with dementia. By participating in a one-hour information session facilitated by Kathy Service, Nurse Practitioner and a Dementia Friends Champion, you will learn about common behaviors exhibited by people with dementia and basic, practical actions to communicate and support adults with memory impairment in our community.<br />&#160;<br />NN Dementia Friendly ZOOM Training on Tuesday, October&#160; 5, 2021 at 6-7PM.<br /><br />Register by Monday, October 4th:<br />https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZModuygpjgqGdXOleiWso3RO6YxC0MjNiO7&#160;<br /><br />After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the training.<br /><br />(If you have trouble with the registration link, please try opening the email in your browser and then click the link)
