A free webinar for carers, patients and community healthcare staff in the Thames Valley

This event is for anyone caring for a person with dementia at home or supporting families with a relative who has dementia. Panel members will answer questions about planning for the future in dementia care, and how to avoid a crisis as the dementia progresses.

Description

The webinar will outline practical steps for Advance Care Planning in dementia care. We will discuss how to help avoid a crisis in the family as the dementia progresses. The panel members will describe which legal documents can help carers to plan ahead and when to arrange them, and answer questions from participants.
