Laymen who have no understanding of dementia or Alzheimer's disease.
None, just an interest in learning more about dementia, Alzheimer's and caring for victims of these diseases.
I am a layman that has dealt with loved ones with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. I am currently caring for a relative with dementia. I have studied dementia, Alzheimer's and how to care for people with these terrible afflictions, how to prevent them, and how to mitigate their negative effects as much as possible. Although I am not a medical professional, perhaps that will make my course more understandable for you, if you are a layman like myself.
