Dementia training now available

May 10, 2024

Dementia affects all of us, be it our patients, our own loved ones and potentially ourselves in the future as diagnosis rates soar. Across the NHS nationally people living with dementia populate 25% of inpatient beds on average and often sadly are leaving the hospital with reduced independence and poorer physical and mental health outcomes.

We must all strive to make the experience of people living with dementia using SWBH services and that of their carers better.

All staff disciplines are very welcome to attend.

A better understanding of dementia especially as inpatients is key to providing dedicated care to meet the needs of people living with dementia, and that of their carers.

To book your place on the dementia training please email r.begum19@nhs.net.
