平特五不中

The 平特五不中 Dementia Education Program is pleased to launch a FREE new online course designed to educate and support care partners of people living with dementia.

The content consists of ten self-guided online modules that the learner can go through at their own pace. It includes expert advice, shared experiences from participants, and solutions to the challenges of being a care partner in the context of dementia.

Each module takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes to complete and focuses on a specific topic, as follows:

1. Do I understand dementia?
2. How can I take care of myself as a care partner?
3. How can I assist the person I am caring for in their daily life?
4. How can I get help to manage the health of the person I am caring for?
5. How can I manage language difficulties and changes in behaviour?
6. How can I keep the person I am caring for safe?
7. How can I help the person I am caring for live well with dementia?
8. How can we prepare for the future from a financial, legal, and medical standpoint?
9. How do I prepare for end of life?
10. What lifestyle factors will help me age healthily?
