ABOUT
Dementia Dialogues is a 12-part series hosted by Dr. Rayne Stroebel (PhD Dementia Studies) on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at the HSFA (Helderberg Society For the Aged) Vonke Park Somerset West. We invite you to partake in this learning journey with us. All attendees will receive notes and handouts. Refreshments will be served. Workshops run from 14:00 - 15:00, with the Let’s Talk support/knowledge-sharing group taking place from 15:00 - 16:00. We invite caregivers and family members who support loved ones with dementia to join us in sharing insights about this neurocognitive condition and how to provide dignified support for those affected.
