You'll learn:

- How to deal with problems arising in daily care-meals, exercise, personal hygiene, and safety
- How to cope with an impaired person's false ideas, suspicion, anger, and other mood problems
- How to get outside help from support groups, friends, and agencies
- Financial and legal issues you must address.
