Consultation & Training

Specialist consultation to care homes in relation to distress in dementia and behaviour that those around them are finding challenging. Working with staff, the family and the person living with dementia to develop an understanding about the person’s life and the current challenges. This involves identifying why the behaviours and distress might be happening, and generating recommendations for the staff (and person, if appropriate).
