Alzheimer's Registration

 

The seminar offers the participant an unique opportunity to learn about Alzheimer's disease, wandering, and the correct life-saving actions to take when a subject with Alzheimer's disease or related dementia disappears.  The training is aimed at both law enforcement personnel and search and rescue personnel who may be responsible for the initial response and subsequent search. Field personnel will also gain important insight into the nature of Alzheimer's and wandering. The course covers the nature of Alzheimer's disease, the scope of the wandering problem, characteristics of lost Alzheimer's subjects, reflex tasking of SAR resources, Urban search considerations, and several case studies.   The course will be instructed by Robert J. Koester, a recognized leader in Alzheimer's searches.

The class is limited to 30 students due to the interactive nature of the presentation and case studies.  Be sure to register as soon as possible.  $75 (US) for payment before September 1, 2002.  $95 (US) for payment after September 1, 2002.

Costs: $75 (US)  If you would like a printed copy of the Instructor's Guide (Lost Alzheimer's Disease Search Management) an extra $30 (US) is required.

You may call (434) 293-5502 for additional information
