While we hope to avoid emergency situations with our loved ones, it’s a reality that is best to be prepared for – not only as a caregiver, but also as a person working as a first responder.  We talk with Tracey Wilkinson, a Crisis Intervention Specialist with Scottsdale Police Department, about the special training program she has helped develop for public safety officers and first responders to be more prepared in situations that require a different approach for someone with cognitive impairment. She also offers helpful tips and actionable steps to make sure you are prepared as a caregiver in an emergency, to ensure your person is cared for in the best possible way.
