It is highly likely that you will find yourself in a situation where you are responsible for the care of an individual with Alzheimer's disease or a significant neurocognitive disorder that profoundly affects their memory. This scenario may arise either within your professional capacity or in your personal life. Preparation is everything! Your task is to develop an educational intervention consisting of 10 to 12 slides aimed at equipping new and prospective caregivers with comprehensive information regarding the expectations and challenges involved in providing care for these individuals. Include the following content in your educational slides:
- The neurocognitive disorder you chose (e.g., Alzheimer's, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, Korsakoff's syndrome)
- An explanation of at least three cognitive changes occurring in various neurological structures (e.g., neurons, the cortex, white matter)
- At least three evidence-based treatments and interventions (e.g., medications, therapies)
- Common challenges faced by caregivers (e.g., financial, physical, emotional)
- A list of four to six community resources (including virtual) that can offer support to both the caregiver and the patient, including the description of the resource along with its corresponding link for easy access
Your educational presentation should include two to three scholarly resources to support your explanations (the textbook can be considered one source). Credible websites, such as .org, .mil, .gov, and .edu, are acceptable but cannot serve as primary sources to support this assignment.
Please ensure that each slide in your presentation contains bullet points highlighting key information. Additionally, include speaker notes that provide expanded explanations or insights beyond what is already stated on the slide. It is important to note that the speaker notes should consist of a minimum of 100 words per slide. Please remember that the community resources mentioned in the presentation do not count as academic sources.
Refer to the resource, "Creating Effective PowerPoint Presentations," located in the Student Success Center, for additional guidance on completing this assignment in the appropriate style/format.
