- The role of medications and neurotransmitters in dementia
In this invaluable workshop you will learn the characteristics of dementia for effective differentiation of dementia as well as how to accurately stage your patients. You will walk away with an array of therapeutic approaches based on the patient’s diagnosis and stage level for successful intervention. This seminar will broaden your understanding of memory and pharmacology and provide evidence-based direct and indirect interventions to help you find the right approach for each patient. Additionally, you will discover how to fully comply with the recent Medicare policies (Jimmo v. Sebelius) and how these changes will impact treatment of your patients.
