Behaviours such as aggression, pacing and wandering can be distressing for the person with dementia and the staff or carers.

This course provides opportunities to:

  • Understand behavioural responses in people with dementia
  • Gain knowledge of a Person-centred approach to enhance wellbeing
  • Reframe our attitude about behavioural responses in some people with dementia
  • Learn problem-solving strategies for behaviours of concern.

Plus a screening of the DVD Understanding the Brain and Behaviour by Dr Helen Creasey. A clear and easy to understand explanation of the changes that occur in the brain and the impact this may have upon behaviour.
