SUMMARY:Why Do I Feel This Way? Understanding Grief in Dementia Caregiving
DESCRIPTION:Caregiving can bring profound emotional challenges. If you’re ever wondering why simple tasks feel so overwhelming\, why you feel so isolated or why you experience anger or tears unexpectedly in your caregiving journey\, you’re not alone. Alongside the physical demands\, caregivers often face complex emotions tied to grief and loss. This webinar will explore how these feelings manifest and provide you with valuable insights into managing them. \nOCO is pleased to welcome the Alzheimer Society of Ontario\, who will guide us through the unique ways that grief and loss affect caregiving. In this session\, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of:\n• The different types of grief\, including ambiguous\, anticipatory\, and disenfranchised grief\n• How to recognize and process the complex emotions that arise while caring for someone with dementia\n• Practical tools and strategies for you to manage these emotions\, along with information on finding support in your community \nOur presenting organization: The Alzheimer Society of Ontario offers programs and services to help people living with dementia\, care partners\, and healthcare professionals get the support they need most.

If you’re ever wondering why simple tasks feel so overwhelming\, why you feel so isolated or why you experience anger or tears unexpectedly in your caregiving journey\, you’re not alone. Alongside the physical demands\, caregivers often face complex emotions tied to grief and loss. This webinar will explore how these feelings manifest and provide you with valuable insights into managing them. \nOCO is pleased to welcome the Alzheimer Society of Ontario\, who will guide us through the unique ways that grief and loss affect caregiving. In this session\, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of: \n• The different types of grief\, including ambiguous\, anticipatory\, and disenfranchised grief\n• How to recognize and process the complex emotions that arise while caring for someone with dementia\n• Practical tools and strategies for you to manage these emotions\, along with information on finding support in your community \nOur presenting organization: The Alzheimer Society of Ontario offers programs and services to help people living with dementia\, care partners\, and healthcare professionals get the support they need most. \nThis webinar will be held on Thursday\, January 8th\, 2026\, at 12:00 PM ET\, with a repeat session on Thursday\, January 15th\, 2026\, at 7:00 PM ET. Please note that both sessions will cover the same content\, and we kindly ask that you select one session to attend.

SUMMARY:Ease the Journey: Advance Care Planning Tips for Caregivers
DESCRIPTION:93% of Canadians believe it’s important to talk about their wishes for their care with family and friends. Yet only 1 in 5 has a plan.1 As a caregiver\, knowing what matters most to your care recipient can help you honour their wishes and give you peace of mind if they become too sick to make decisions. But when is the right time to start these conversations? How do you approach the subject?
