Looking after someone with dementia requires more than compassion - it takes knowledge, skill, and confidence. This CPD-accredited 2-hour online upskilling training, delivered by Dementia Forward, is designed specifically for paid carers who want to provide outstanding care and support.
In this interactive session, you will:
- Understand the most common types of dementia, including Alzheimer’s, Vascular, Lewy Body, and Frontotemporal dementia
- Explore the changes happening in the brain and how these affect behaviour, memory, and communication
- Learn how to recognise signs of distress, pain, and unmet needs in people living with dementia
- Discover practical strategies to improve communication and reduce distress
- Gain insights into how the environment and care approach can positively or negatively impact wellbeing
This course will give you essential tools to provide care that is person-centred, respectful, and effective. By the end, you will feel more confident in responding to challenges and supporting those you care for with dignity and understanding.
