Not Normal Aging helps learners understand and recognize the differences in normal and not normal aging. Part 3: Positive Physical Approach (PPA) and Hand Under Hand (HuH) are PAC partnering techniques that enable care partners to shift from simply "dealing with" challenging behaviors to creating a positive and caring environment Part 4: Teepa's Gems is learning about the brain change model (stages of dementia) and how care can be tailored by focusing on the abilities people retain in each stage throughout their dementia journey.
