Working with People with Dementia
Presenter: Mark Markell, professor of psychology at Worsham College of Mortuary Science

Dementia can be a difficult diagnosis to receive and a challenging life to live. When a person with dementia experiences the death of a significant person, the care providers, usually the family, may need support to decide how to tell the person, how to cope with possible intense emotional reactions, and even if they should have the person attend the funeral or memorial service.  Ultimately care providers may decide not to tell the person and may not have them attend the service; the funeral director can be a resource as decisions are made.
