Guest speaker is Lynne O’Malley, community liaison for Right at Home In Home Care & Assistance and PAC Certified Independent Trainer. She will discuss Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Care partnering techniques, including Positive Physical Approach and Hand-under-Hand. These skills enable care partners to shift from simply “dealing with the behaviors” to creating a positive and caring environment. The group will learn observational skills needed to recognize signals of unmet needs and growing distress in the person being cared for and respond in a way that reduces anxiety and improves quality of life.
