About the CPD course
This course is aimed at healthcare assistants to upskill their knowledge and understanding of dementia and the management during latter stages of disease. It ensures a holistic approach of care; and an appreciation to why an individual may be displaying certain symptoms. It enables the condition to be understood better; and alleviates any fears that maybe present in the management of individuals with dementia. It further embraces dignity; respect and compassion and teaches individuals to look at the symptoms of the disease which maybe causing additional confusion and/or disorientation.
We are a charity which provides specialist compassionate care and support to patients and their families in Barnsley who are living with a progressive, life-limiting illness.
