Proven to decrease family caregiver distress, burden and depression, while increasing caregivers’ sense of competence and confidence in their care role.
Each session uses a combination of instruction, interactive exercises, and home assignments for you to learn SAVVY® concepts and apply them to your own caregiving situations. The goal is for family caregivers to feel confident and competent in their care role so that they can make the most of their time with their person who is living with dementia.
