As a new face at Alzheimer's Services, I am learning the ins and outs of the organization as I shadow the footsteps of Program Coordinator, Julie Brewer. My basic understanding of Alzheimer's disease has expanded through Dementia Care training and programs such as "A Cause to Remember" and "Sharing the Journey." Though the majority of my work has been assisting with Education Conference preparations, I have learned through Caregiver Network Meetings and the Helpline that working here requires one part compassion and one part resourcefulness - something the staff have and offer quite well. I am learning to keep my heart open, time flexible, and planner handy!
