What we’re about
Caring for someone with dementia is a demanding role that often falls to family members with little or no training. This "learning on the job" approach can lead to mistakes, increased stress, and frustration for both the carer and the person with dementia. Moreover, carers themselves are at increased risk for poor health and dementia due to the physical and emotional toll of their responsibilities. The journey can be isolating, overwhelming, and detrimental to the carer's own well-being.
The Solution:
Our Quality Improvements for Care at Home course provides essential skills and support for caregivers. This 6-week course is designed to enhance your caregiving abilities while prioritising your well-being. We focus on practical ways to reduce frustration and agitation, improve communication skills, and emphasise the importance of self-care. Our goal is to make your caregiving journey a little easier, less damaging to your health, and less stressful, ultimately creating better memories for both you and your loved one.
