MicroLearning from Riverside

Riverside Logo
A project of Riverside Center for Excellence in Aging and Lifelong Health, in partnership with LeadingAge and LeadingAge Virginia. All rights reserved.
These microlearning lessons were primarily developed as a training tool for team members working in nursing homes, assisted living communities and home care, especially those working closest with people living with dementia. We present these videos to you, the family caregiver, as a helpful tool that can provide practical, person-centered strategies in the day-to-day caring of people living with Alzheimer’s and dementia.
