Technology continues to transform how caregivers support people living with dementia. In this session, Ron Beleno shares real-life examples and emerging trends in dementia care technology—from tracking tools and voice assistants to sensor-based safety innovations.

In this session, participants will:

  3. Feel more confident in evaluating and introducing tech solutions in their workplaces.
