Older adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) may exhibit dementia and clinical symptoms that are distinct to this group. This can lead to misconceptions that make it challenging to recognize cognitive decline in adults with IDD. Educating direct support professionals about these unique characteristics is crucial for effectively supporting this population. Join Relias to hear Christina Marsack-Topolewski, PhD, LMSW, discuss the regressive characteristics that may occur in older adults with IDD.

You'll learn: 

• Signs of regression in adults with IDD
• Types of dementia
• Trends and prevalence of dementia in IDD
