Synopsis

The Dementia Care Training Library is a unique suite of modular, person-centred, dementia-specific content designed to equip health and social care services professionals to deliver training. All materials take an experiential approach, providing a balance of information and action learning activities that enable trainees to reflect on and apply new knowledge in real time as a team, and to ultimately make changes to everyday practice in the care environment.

Module 6: The Physical Environment explores how understanding the ways in which physical and social environments affect the wellbeing of people with dementia can enable more respectful, person-centred care. It is structured in four Sessions (The importance of getting the environment right; Daily living environments; Indoor spaces; Outdoor spaces), allowing the training to be broken into manageable chunks according to the time available and the needs of learners. Each Session takes 3-4 hours to complete and is supported by a PowerPoint slide deck. The Module also includes 21 worksheets for distribution to participants. The slides, worksheets and further resources are available for customers to download from a supporting website.

All Dementia Care Training Library. Modules are supplied as looseleaf pages, complete with divider, ready for insertion into the series master binder (available separately as part of the Dementia Care Training Library Starter Pack).
