Dementia
Awareness Week 2015 starts today!
Life
doesn't end when Dementia begins and Alzheimer's Society is encouraging
everyone to #DoSomethingNew this week - try out a new activity or hobby, find
something you've never done before!
Why
not try e-learning! Have a look at our Dementia course here, with a free demo
available:
This e-learning course has been developed for anyone who is new
to, will soon be involved in, or is currently involved in caring for someone
with dementia, whether within the family or as a professional, either at home
or as part of a team in a residential facility.
Learners will find out about the meaning of the term dementia, its
causes and the possible effects the condition may have on people as it
progresses. The course also looks at the importance of good communication and
interaction between carers and the people they support and identifies
strategies for coping with challenging behaviour.
The on-line materials include quizzes and activities to help
reinforce learning as students work through the course.
For more information call 0161 928 9987.
