Effective communication is essential, especially when supporting loved ones with Alzheimer's or dementia. As the disease progresses, communication can become challenging, but with patience and the right strategies, you can make a big difference. Here are some key tips: • One-on-One Time: Engage in personal conversations with minimal distractions. • Non-Verbal Cues: Pay attention to your tone, body language, and use gestures to aid understanding. • Encourage Speech: Listen patiently and use context clues to help them express themselves. • Keep It Simple: Use short sentences and yes/no questions to enhance clarity. • Stay Positive: Avoid arguments and maintain a supportive, positive attitude. Remember, caring for someone with Alzheimer's or dementia is a journey. Check out our blog to learn more: https://hubs.li/Q02yZjxt0 💜 #AlzheimersAwareness #DementiaCare #SeniorCare #SeniorHelpers

Did you know that the Senior Helpers Marketing Team offers internship opportunities at our franchise support center and corporate offices in Towson, Maryland? 🤔 We recently had the pleasure of having Mora, a local student from Stevenson University, as our Spring 2024 intern and here's what they had to say about their time with us: "Ever since I started at Senior Helpers, I’ve gained a lot of experience in marketing and social media. Personally speaking as a graphic designer, social media and marketing were two areas that I was particularly lacking in. Prior to this internship, I hadn’t had much chance to touch on those areas, nor had I ever worked in a corporate environment. I know now, for sure, that I’ll be leaving with valuable skills to add to my resume and I’m confident in my skills moving forward. The projects I worked on offered me opportunities to get hands-on experience and to broaden my knowledge and I also have the rest of the marketing department to thank for showing me the ropes. I’m excited for what awaits me after graduation and Senior Helpers has helped me immensely." We wish you the best as you take the next steps to start your career and congratulations on your recent graduation, Mora! 🎓🎉 #InternshipProgram #MarketingIntern #MarylandIntern #StevensonUniversity #SeniorHelpers
