Supporting People Living with Dementia

This is our second session from GPM associate Jan Massiah, who was part of the Age Better in Bristol team. In this interactive, 2 hour workshop, Jan will provide an inspiring and reflective space for you to consider and improve your work supporting people living with dementia.

The session will explore ways to enhance the environment and wellbeing of people living with dementia, and how getting to know people as individuals can support this process.

Some of the things that will be covered in this session include:

· Recognising the signs of well-being and ill -being

· Considering ours and other assumptions and how we can challenge these

· How working in partnership can facilitate maximum independence for people living with dementia

· How can dementia awareness be built into strategic objectives in your work environment?

· What wider training or resources do you need to have in place for your work
