The Managing Difficult Behaviors training modules were designed to summarize key concepts and are intended for individual use by long term care and hospice professionals only to train staff and family members on managing difficult behaviors in persons with dementia. They are not exhaustive or comprehensive and should be used with due diligence and an understanding of the target audience. The professionals who use them should always adhere to professional standards, apply concepts only if fully understood, and seek clarification from the Wayne State University Institute of Gerontology or Hospice of Michigan if any clarification is deemed necessary.
