I took the CE Course Neurocognitive Disorder – Alzheimer’s Disease. It is excellent. One of the striking learning points for me was the vivid characterization that your actor had for a patient with advanced Alzheimer’s. I can still see her in my mind over 2 weeks later. That has been one of the main benefits and goals for incorporating video learning, is its ability to help with knowledge retention and recall. Thank you.
