Mark you calendar…..you will want to make this a priority for your continuing education this year!  Why do we say that?  Because once again, we have been fortunate in booking some really top-notch speakers who will stretch your mind, provide new information and new insights.  The fellowship with others involved in the long term care area will be, as usual, priceless!  And we have some new exhibitors this year presenting products that may be very new to your practice.  We have been blessed by obtaining the assistance of more speakers who are either bilingual or Francophone more than ever before.

Topics that will be covered include:

·        What can we learn from Europe about improving Dementia and Seniors Care?

·        Managing Medication in the Elderly

·        Safety in Medication Management

·        How the Brain actually works and the Etiology of Alzheimers Disease?

·        Hogeway:  Dementia Village….a Pioneering Care Facility (won’t see this in Canada yet!)

·        The Connection Between Organizational Culture and Quality of Care/Service

·        Music:  An Honest and Reliable Clinical Therapy

·        Healthy Aging:  Natural Products; Honey; Many Others

·        Quebec’s Experience with Keeping Elders Comfortable at Home (Home First?)

·        And much more!

On the lighter side, we will offer an evening variety show at the Playhouse and buffet dinner which will help you relax for the evening.

Go to this link until you find the brochure for the symposium and the registration forms; as normal, the Department of Social Development has agreed to fund the registration for 25 people so you will want to register early.

See you September 24-26 2014!
