A Senate Republican on Monday filed a proposal that would offer training to law-enforcement officers about Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia.

Sen. Danny Burgess, R-Zephyrhills, filed the proposal for consideration during the 2024 session, which will start in January.

It said training would include “instruction on interacting with persons with Alzheimer’s disease or a related form of dementia, including instruction on techniques for recognizing behavioral symptoms and characteristics, effective communication, employing the use of alternatives to physical restraints, and identifying signs of abuse, neglect or exploitation.”Road closed due to construction work on Nira St both ways between FL-13 Hendricks Ave and Flagler Ave.
