The ABCs of Frontotemporal Dementias
Conversations with Dr. Tam Cummings - A Monthly Education Series for the Dementia Caregiver
THURSDAY, JULY 7, 2022 11:00 A.M.- 12:15 P.M. ET, 10:00 A.M.- 11:15 A.M. CT
Featuring Guest Speaker Tam Cummings, Ph.D., Gerontologist, Author, Untangling Alzheimer’s: The Guide for Families and Professionals
The three domains and subsets of this “young persons’ dementia” will be reviewed, allowing family caregivers an opportunity to identify the form of Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD) their loved one has and what to expect for the future. Often challenging to recognize as a dementia due to the person’s age, the FTDs can cause especially high levels of stress for the family caregiver. This session with Dr. Tam Cummings will address the stages, domains, unique behaviors and decline in persons living with FTD and the impact this disease has on the family caregiver.
