Alzheimer’s Disease
Epidemic and Opportunity
On-Demand
The number of individuals affected by Alzheimer’s disease is projected to double by 2060, creating a massive need for care and services in this country in the coming years. For senior care providers, this also creates an opportunity to make a difference where it is truly needed.
In this webinar, we’ll explore the following areas
- What are the projected needs for care and what do we expect to be the largest need areas?
- What should providers know before jumping into specialty dementia care?
- How does the disease affect families, communities and businesses? How can senior care providers help in these areas, too?
- What innovations in care are coming? How can you be ahead of the pack in preparing to care?
