NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - September 24, 2015) - Dementia care professionals truly are in a class by themselves. They face myriad challenges each day-from things as basic as assisting with personal care to communication difficulties resulting from dementia symptoms. Often unacknowledged, dementia care professionals are working behind the scenes to really get to know the individuals in their care and tailor the way in which they interact with, and provide care to, them. One such caregiver will earn the title of "Dementia Care Professional of the Year." October 1 is the deadline to nominate a deserving healthcare professional for this award.
