Lewy Body Dementia is one of the more commonly diagnosed dementia-related diseases, yet most long-term care professionals know very little about what makes it different from Alzheimer’s disease. In this session, those differences will be studied, and learners will review the two sub-types of this disease, as well as best practices for providing care to individuals who have been diagnosed with it.

Objectives:

• Review what Lewy Body Disease is and what causes it
• Recognize the symptoms of LBD and the brain changes that cause them
• Identify the differences between LBD and Alzheimer’s
• Understand how to best support individuals living with Lewy Body Disease
