U-First! for Care Partners is an innovative education program for individuals who are supporting someone with behaviour changes due to dementia or cognitive impairment. This 6-hour education program is run in 3 weekly sessions and will help you build confidence and skills to:

  • Enhance your well-being and that of the person you are supporting who is experiencing behaviour changes
  • Reduce responsive behaviours using the U-First! framework
  • Improve collaboration among all team members through common knowledge, language, and approach to care

It is recommended that participants have completed week one of the Next Steps & Care Essentials series, or attended a “What is Dementia?” presentation prior to attending this program.  The deadline for registration is October 21, 2020.

  • 3 x 2 hour sessions – Oct.23, Oct. 30, Nov 6, 2020 from 10:00 am – 12:00 noon
