Therapeutic Fibbing: When the Truth Can Hurt

Presented by: Patty Piechocki, CTRS, QMCP – Manager of Programming & Continuing Education – Alzheimer’s and Dementia Services of Northern Indiana

Honesty is NOT always the best policy when caring for a loved one living with dementia. Forcing someone with dementia to join our reality can cause increased confusion, pain, anxiety, and fear. This session will discuss when to use therapeutic fibbing, and suggestions on when to use it as a way to reduce emotional distress for your loved one. Light appetizers and drinks will be served.
