Enhance your knowledge and improve the quality of care you provide with this CPD‑accredited dementia awareness course. Dementia affects millions of people worldwide, and supporting individuals through every stage of their journey requires compassion, understanding, and effective communication. This exclusive training follows the patient journey from pre‑diagnosis through to care at home, emergency care, hospital admission, care home admission, and end‑of‑life care.

Through six powerful video dramatisations, this dementia awareness course brings real‑life scenarios to life. You’ll follow Maggie and Mick as they navigate diagnosis, home support, and residential care, and Marty and Mary as they experience emergency medical care, hospital admission, and end‑of‑life support. Each scenario is paired with reflective questions based on the VIPS Framework, encouraging learners to consider their own practice, the challenges they face, and the standards within their organisations.

In addition, the course includes insights from professionals across health and social care, as well as families of people living with dementia. You’ll gain factual knowledge about person‑centred care, the different types of dementia, and practical approaches to managing symptoms. By the end, you’ll have a deeper understanding of how to support people with dementia in a way that respects their dignity, individuality, and quality of life.
