Caring for Veterans Living with Dementia

Patty Mouton

Veterans living with dementia present with unique clinical and behavioral considerations influenced by military culture, trauma exposure, and co-occurring conditions such as PTSD and traumatic brain injury (TBI). This course provides an overview of how military service impacts cognitive decline, behavior, and care needs. Participants will learn to recognize trauma-related triggers, interpret behavioral expressions, and apply trauma-informed care strategies. Practical tools for communications, environmental adaptions, and navigating VA resources will be provided to support both professionals and caregivers.

At the completion of the course, participants will be able to:

    1. Describe how military service, PTSD, and TBI influence dementia risk
    2. Recognize behavioral expressions in veterans with dementia
    3. Identify and apply trauma-informed communications and care strategies
    4. Identify available VA and community resources to support veterans
