Having recently lost my father, who did not suffer from dementia, I was able to revisit my last two weeks with him in the hospital and realize how fortunate my family was. He had excellent care in the Veterans Administration Hospital, and we were supported 100% in every decision and conversation that was presented. I was on the family/caregiver side of the desk, and not functioning as a professional SLP, and this course was a great comfort to me; we really did everything we could do for dad.
