As we reach out to North Idaho’s Parkinson’s community, we commit to increasing awareness and understanding of this disease while providing hope, education and connection with others traveling the same path. https://www.cdaparkinsons.com/.
This in-person, three-part series is provided over the course of 6 hours. It will provide you with practical answers to questions that arise in the early, middle, and late stages of Alzheimer’s. Hear from those directly affected and learn what resources, support and connections exist in your community! More information here.
Managing your own health is just as important as the care you give others.
In collaboration, the Treasure Valley Family YMCA is excited to offer safe,
enjoyable, and engaging activities for your loved one, while providing
access for the caregiver to participate in the educational lecture
series. We welcome you to our facility for this vital community offering. Details here.
One Site is also offering respite for 20 caregivers to alleviate the need to find someone to take care of their loved one so they can attend.
Our Keynote will be local Bonners Ferry author Carolyn Birrell (Walking with Fay) with other topics to include:
- Decoding and responding to dementia related behaviors
- Insurance Issues
- Care Planning through the continuum
- Caregiver Panel Q&A with experienced caregivers and hopefully Dr. Melchiore if her calendar permits.
Space for this first conference is limited to 80 caregivers, but we hope to grow this in a much larger venue next year. More details and registration here
Dr. Kara Kuntz, medical director of the
St. Alphonsus Memory Center and
Geriatric Program Development, will
lead a monthly Q&A for your medical
questions. Please RSVP by calling 208-608-7580
