Overview

Perception of Dementia for Professionals
Build workforce understanding of dementia through training that explains the condition in a practical, service-relevant manner. The course introduces dementia as a broad set of cognitive conditions, explores different forms and symptoms, and considers how dementia can affect the person living with it, as well as family members. For organisations delivering care, the programme offers a sound basis for responding more appropriately to dementia, and improving the quality of interaction with patients whose needs may be changing over time.
Why this Training Matters for your Organisation
Dementia awareness has a direct bearing on how confidently staff interpret behaviour, communicate sensitively, and uphold the rights of individuals who may be experiencing memory loss or cognitive change. Organizations that invest in this understanding are better positioned to ensure their practice reflects both legal responsibilities and standard care values.
Who Should Attend
This course is suitable for:
  • Care staff who work with older adults or people living with dementia.
  • Managers intending to improve staff awareness of dementia-related matters.

Certification, CPD, and Records

This programme is approved by CPD and rewards 3 CPD points. Diplomas, student logs, and organisational documentation can support employers in verifying staff development in dementia-awareness.

Course Content and Learning Outcomes

The course develops practical knowledge of dementia awareness, including:

  • What dementia is, the different types that may be encountered, and common signs or symptoms.
  • How dementia may affect individuals, relationships, behaviour, and everyday functioning.
  • Key legal and ethical considerations relevant to supporting people living with dementia in the UK.

Duration and Delivery

The training is delivered online and usually takes 2 to 3 hours to finish. Its self-directed structure makes it fit for induction and staff training, especially when employees need accessible training that can fit around operational commitments. The course can be tailored towards individual or group demand, such as modifying modules or title of course.
