Dementia Leadership Course
Hosted by Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center and LeadingAge Illinois
Live/Virtual
LeadingAge Indiana is partnering with LeadingAge Illinois to offer this Dementia Leadership Course.
For over 20 years, LeadingAge Illinois and Rush Alzheimer’s Disease Center have offered the Dementia Leadership Course, a comprehensive educational series intended to provide Dementia Leaders with information they need to develop their skills and grow in their roles.
Dementia experts have recently re-designed this interactive program and added an ongoing networking component. The course provides a framework to teach others the specialized skills and competencies needed to provide exceptional dementia services.
Upon completion of the course, participants will join the Dementia Leadership Network. Through a private forum, the Network will offer resources and training material to use for staff education, and allow participants to continue to interact, connect, share ideas, and ask questions.
Topics Include:
Leadership and Dementia Care
Update on Dementia
Ability Centered Care
Recognizing the Whole Person
Being an Expert in the Larger Community
Living with Dementia
