Many of us have a family member or friend with dementia in one of its forms. Abby Rudd, Avanti Senior Living dementia specialist, presented us with valuable information regarding dementia. With the help of Kelly Huntley, Avanti's Memory Care Director, the class participated in a virtual dementia tour to help understand how disorienting and difficult life can be for a person with dementia. Trying to perform the most basic tasks became impossible. Great discussion after we went through the tour.
