Supporting people with dementia requires specialist knowledge and practical skills. This dementia interventions training course is designed for health and social care staff who work with individuals living with dementia. It provides a clear understanding of clinical guidelines, treatment options, and care strategies that address both cognitive and non‑cognitive symptoms.

Learners will explore interventions for memory and cognitive decline, approaches for managing comorbid emotional disorders, and the role of palliative care in advanced stages. The course also covers drug treatments, ethical considerations, and best practice in delivering person‑centred support.

By the end of this dementia interventions training, participants will have the underpinning knowledge to apply evidence‑based strategies, support individuals effectively, and improve quality of life for people with dementia.
