Day 2 of “Dementia: How To Prepare For The Future” -
How to Deal With 3 Challenging Behaviors You’ll Likely See
Make sure to scroll down below the video for your free cheatsheets, day 2 assignment & info, and access to the Facebook Group.
Day 2 Cheatsheet:
“How To Adjust Your Expectations To Their Reality” Cheatsheet
This in-the-moment cheatsheet arms you with the following tools:
A 4-step response (ask 1–2 questions, validate, answer in their reality, then let that reality guide how much to share) — so you de-escalate in the moment — creating calmer interactions fast.
Real-life shower and “I want to go home” examples — so you know exactly what to say next — turning refusals into cooperation.
A repeatable process you can use for any behavior — so you feel confident under pressure — making caregiving feel easier.
Assignment & Instructions
Don’t forfeit your results by avoiding the assignment!
The workshop shows you what to do - the results come from actually putting it into practice. If you want to see a difference in your life, the assignments are how you make it happen!
Day 2 Assignment:
Which challenging behavior do you see the most of?
What is 1 different way of responding to it that you'll try out before our next session?

The third and final day is tomorrow, but we still have Q&A sessions to support you on Tuesday 9/30 and Wednesday 10/1 (7:30pm ET on Zoom both dauys), so you have until October 1st to complete your assignment and still get feedback / help from Krista and the group on Facebook.
