WORKSHOP WILL BE OVER TWO HALF DAYS FROM 8.30AM – 12.00NOON ON 4 & 6 APRIL 2016 Registrations for this workshop are invited from Western Australian health professionals working in acute, residential or community settings, particularly those responsible for assessing and creating care plans for people living with dementia. Workshop objectives:

• Understand the underpinning theory of the HDS-R
• Demonstrate ability to assess people with dementia using the HDS-R
• Combine the results of HDS-R assessments with a Possibility Oriented Approach to provide person-centred interventions.

The workshop will be using WebEx web-conferencing software which is accessible via the internet at no cost to you.  You will need a computer with an internet connection, webcam and microphone in order to participate.  Participants need to attend both sessions. This training workshop is part of a study being conducted by The University of Western Australia into the outcomes of different workshop delivery methods used for the teaching of cognitive assessment.  The study requires part of the first video conferenced session to be filmed/recorded from the perspectives of both the presenter and the participants.  We will need all participants to provide consent to being filmed and providing feedback at the end of the workshop and three months afterwards.  Please read the attached ‘Participant Information Form’ for more information.
