Progressing Care in Dementia Services

Improve the quality of your dementia care through integrated working, workforce planning and alternatives to medication
Three years on from the Dementia Strategy, and there is still work to be done.

This conference is your chance to tackle the rising dementia rates through improved early diagnosis and by revolutionising attitudes and approaches to care in all settings from domicilary to acute. Now is the time to shift your focus – only at Progressing Care in Dementia Services will you find new ways to improve the quality of your dementia service, both in terms of outcome monitoring and new approaches to care.

This event offers you the opportunity to learn from the experiences of dementia professionals from around the country and to hear how they are progressing their services. Through practical case studies and the sharing of real-life experiences, you’ll come away with fresh ideas and insights into how you can offer a more person-centred dementia care pathway.
