Down’s syndrome, ageing and dementia

Wednesday 30 November 2022 | 10.00 – 11.30am | £10.00

A 90 minute webinar for families and  health and social care staff involved in assessing and providing for the care-needs of adults with Down’s syndrome who have a diagnosis of dementia or work in services where they may attend.

This webinar will help families or staff supporting adults who have Down’s syndrome to understand the importance of recognising possible signs of the onset of dementia and the need to take a differential diagnosis approach – is it, in fact, dementia or what other possible causes of changes in individuals’ functioning and wellbeing need to be considered?

You will then hear about the ‘philosophy of good care’ and learn practical strategies to ensure that individuals are well supported and their changing care needs are addressed.

This training session is live and unavailable as a recording.
