Training
Introduction
We believe that people living with dementia have the right to be treated with respect and dignity, supported by care professionals of all roles and disciplines who treat them with unconditional positive regard, empathy and compassion.
We believe that, fundamentally, most care professionals do what they do because they care. If care professionals genuinely care about the people they support, this will form the basis of meaningful, person centred relationships. But care professionals need more…they need the knowledge, specialist skills and tools to enable those they support to live well with dementia.
We believe that our training equips care professionals to truly understand what person centred care looks like and feels like.
We offer face to face commissioned training in training venues or in-house (Care Home, Hospital, Day Service, Health Centre, Shop, Place of Worship…), ‘open’ courses, coaching and mentoring services, on-line learning, conference presentations and workshops and Service or Profession specific bespoke training.
As our company name suggests, we offer training specifically on topics related to the experience of dementia…nothing else. This means that our training is underpinned by current best practice, policy and legislation aimed at enabling those affected by dementia to live well. Our training is designed to help Services achieve more than just CQC Essential Standards for people living with dementia. We are passionately committed to person centred being which ensures all our learners feel valued, respected and involved in the learning process to achieve their very best.
