Dementia Awareness

Welcome to Dementia Awareness Course, developed by The Greenhouse.

This course will go through 6 individual sessions, delving into the topics around Dementia to help people better support those living with the disease.

Throughout the course we will look at:

• What dementia is
• Parts of the brain and their functionality
• The different types of dementia there are
• Reality vs validation, and looking at the type of support needed and how we can reflect and think about the individual for their level of support
• Current legislation in place to support those affected
• The cognitive and functional ability of those living with dementia and looking at the developing symptoms both mentally and physically

At the end of the course there is a 12 question quiz with an 80% pass rate.  Once completed you will receive a certificate as evidence of passing our Dementia Awareness Course.
