How To Use This Cheatsheet:
-
What To Say To Stop Challenging Behaviors
Have you ever tried to calm down your person with dementia, but found that you only made it worse?
Most caregivers find this to be true a lot more often than they’d like. This cheatsheet will give you a frame work for any response so that what you say calms them down instead of making them worse.
I’ll be sending this to you on Thursday, March 13, so keep an eye out for it!
-
Activities to Prevent Challenging Behaviors
If you keep your eye on your email on Thursday, March 20, you’re in for a treat!
This is a “cheatsheet” on how to come up with activities that your person with dementia will want to do - allowing you to keep them occupied and reduce the challenging behaviors so you get more peace and freedom.

Facebook Live Event March 27 @ 7:30 PM U.S. Eastern Time
During this live event, you’ll get to ask questins and share your wins as I dig deeper into how to use the tools this month to get a win.
Remember to share your win by March 31st to be entered to win a prize at our free Zoom workshop next month.
Do you dread something your person with dementia does, because you don’t have a good solution?
If so, this month is all about getting you a WIN with that very thing.
ANY challenging behavior will work - whether it’s refusals, delusions, accusations, hallucinations, “I Want To Go Home” and exit-seeking, sundowning, inappropriate behvaiors, anger, wandering, repeating things, apathy and withdrawal, or others… you just need to pick one.
You’ll get cheatsheets every week with new things to explore and try to discover a solution and get a win.
Accompanying 2-minute video each week to show you how to use them and a Facebook LIVE event on Thursday, March 27th @ 7:30pm ET (or replay afterwards) to answer questions and walk through them.
What is possible for you with the Caregiver Wins Series is:
You will start to see challenging behaviors as simply another form of communication.
Be able to better understand your person through their challenges.
Build meaningful moments that make the challenging moments easier.
Make this journey you are walking filled with more rewards than hardships.
The goal is for you to get 1 win as a direct result of trying something you learn. I hope to see you there!
