What does this training cover?

How to develop empathy — the ability to understand a loved one’s experience — and use it to provide more patient, compassionate, effective care.

Why is empathy important in caregiving?

It transforms care from task-focused to genuinely connected, reducing conflict and distress, especially when caring for someone with dementia.
