Dementia Education and Understanding is a training for family caregivers that provides education on the different forms and causes of dementia, gives insight into the progression of cognitive decline, and offers tools to better understand how to provide care for the unique needs and challenges that individuals with dementia face.  This training also focuses on the needs of the caregivers who selflessly give to their loved ones and offers tools for self-care to ensure that caregivers are also taking time to care for themselves.  This training is provided by Stephanie Kostizen, LMSW, ACHP-SW who is a hospice social worker and veteran advocate for Caring Circle and Corewell Health South.
