Course overview

Demen­tia affects around 820,000 peo­ple in the UK. This fig­ure is like­ly to rise to one mil­lion by 2025 and two mil­lion by 2051. It is one of the main caus­es of dis­abil­i­ty in lat­er life and with research being des­per­ate­ly under­fund­ed, it costs the UK over £26 bil­lion a year. Under­stand­ing demen­tia and the per­son-cen­tred care that is required is fun­da­men­tal to high qual­i­ty care

This qual­i­fi­ca­tion aims to assist learn­ers to devel­op their knowl­edge and under­stand­ing of the prin­ci­ples of car­ing for those with demen­tia. It cov­ers areas such as per­son cen­tred care, the influ­ence of pos­i­tive com­mun­ci­a­tion meth­ods, issues relat­ing to the use of med­ica­tion for those with demen­tia and the impor­tance of pro­vid­ing appro­pri­ate activ­i­ties. The qual­i­fi­ca­tion does­n’t infer com­pe­tence in the work role, but can be used to sup­port under­pin­ning knowl­edge and under­stand­ing need­ed for those work­ing in, or towards, a demen­tia care role.
