Dementia Decision-Making for Caregivers

Gain clarity and confidence when making difficult decisions for a loved one living with dementia.

Join AARP Colorado for a free lunch and learn event on Friday, September 11, 2026 at 11 a.m. at the Mesa County RSVP offices. Tabby Wiiest, program manager from Hilltop Senior Day Break will present and lunch will be provided.

Caregivers can learn to better understand how dementia affects memory, judgment, insight, communication, and behavior—and what those changes may mean for decision-making and guardianship. You can gain practical knowledge you can use to navigate real family situations and conversations. 

What to expect:
Clear, plain-language explanations of decision-making capacity.
How dementia progression can impact independence.
When and why families consider guardianship.
Time to ask questions and hear answers during a live Q&A.

Check in/Lunch served: 11 a.m.
Presentation: 11:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
Space is limited—register today to reserve your spot and feel more prepared for what’s ahead.
