Dementia DESCRIPTION:Clinical Course 2 CE credits LIVE\, Interactive Webinar \n\n\n\nCourse Description: Research has shown that many older adults diagnosed with major depressive disorder also experience cognitive deficits that closely resemble dementia. In 1961\, Professor Leslie Kiloh described this phenomenon as “pseudo-dementia.” Later studies\, however\, found that many of these individuals eventually go on to develop dementia\, raising complex challenges for accurate diagnosis and treatment. Older adults and their care teams must often navigate the overlap between depressive symptoms\, age-related cognitive changes\, and psychiatric dementia symptoms such as hallucinations and paranoia. This overlap makes it especially difficult to determine whether an individual is experiencing depression\, dementia\, or a combination of both—leaving professionals\, families\, and individuals themselves uncertain about the true cause of their symptoms. This clinical course will compare the symptoms of depression and dementia and examine the risks and consequences of inaccurate diagnoses. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions throughout the presentation\, engage in instructor-led discussions\, and take part in a Q&A session at the end. \n\n\n\nFrom this course attendees will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nExplain how untreated depressive symptoms in older adults can resemble cognitive symptoms similar to dementia.\n\n\n\nRecognize the challenges in differentiating depression from dementia and the overlap with psychiatric dementia symptoms.\n\n\n\nUnderstand the potential consequences of an inaccurate or delayed diagnosis.\n\n\n\nIdentify nonpharmacological strategies to support older adults experiencing cognitive and mood changes.\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse Description\n\n\n\n\n \n \n 2026 AFA Professional Training Webinar: Pseudo-Dementia vs. True Dementia\n \n \n \n 2 CE credits available for social workers licensed in an ASWB accredited state\, as well as New York State licensed social workers.

Attendees will analyze a variety of behavioral expressions—such as agitation\, resistance\, pacing\, verbal outbursts\, and fear-based reactions—to uncover the unmet physical\, social\, or emotional needs that may be driving the behavior. Participants will practice trauma-informed communication approaches\, environmental modifications\, and de-escalation techniques tailored to the unique needs of each individual. This course is fully interactive\, encouraging open discussion\, shared problem-solving\, and hands-on application. By the end of the course\, participants will leave with practical\, person-centered tools to support individuals experiencing distress behaviors and to enhance care outcomes in a wide range of settings. \n\n\n\nFrom this course you will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nAnalyze case vignettes to identify possible triggers and unmet needs underlying responsive behaviors.\n\n\n\nDemonstrate effective\, person-centered approaches for de-escalating agitation and distress in real-world scenarios.\n\n\n\nDevelop individualized response plans—including environmental\, relational\, and procedural strategies—to reduce distress behaviors and prevent escalation.\n\n\n\nEvaluate how caregiver approach\, tone\, body language\, and environmental factors influence behavioral outcomes.\n\n\n\n\n\nCourse Description\n\n\n\n\n \n \n 2026 AFA Professional Training Webinar: Reframing Agitation and Aggression: Practical Applications and Case Analysis\n \n \n \n 2 CE credits available for social workers licensed in an ASWB accredited state\, as well as New York State licensed social workers.
