About This Event
- Event Type:Mruk Family Center on Aging
Details:
This workshop focuses on Positive Approach to Care "care-partnering" techniques, including Positive Physical Approach (PPA) and Hand Under Hand (HUH). These newly learned skills enable care-partners to shift from simply "dealing with the behaviors" to creating a positive and caring environment. Learners develop observational skills needed to recognize signals of "unmet needs and growing distress" in the person they care for and respond in a way that reduces anxiety and improves quality of life.
