During candid 30-minute interviews with leading experts, Claire Webster, Founder of the McGill Dementia Education Program, explores topics related to caring for a loved one who is living with dementia McGill Cares: Caring for someone with dementia: What you need to know about hallucinations, delusions and paranoia Simon Ducharme, MD, FRCPC, is a neuropsychiatrist and a clinician-scientist at the Douglas Mental Health University Institute and The Neuro (Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital). He specializes in frontotemporal dementia and the interface between psychiatric disorders and dementia. Dr. Ducharme will shed light on how dementia can lead to delusions, hallucinations and paranoia. He will explain why these symptoms develop and how they impact both the person living with dementia and their care partners. He will then share practical strategies to help families manage these often-distressing situations so that they are better prepared to respond effectively, and will provide guidance on when it may be necessary to seek medical attention.This free webcast will be available in both English and French. ____________________________ McGill Cares is supported by the Amelia Saputo Community Outreach for Dementia Care.
