Dementia Education Online Resource

The Eastern Australia Dementia Training and Study Centre (EADTSC) is pleased to announce the launch of the ‘Dementia Education Online’ resource, a website providing flexible learning for undergraduate and postgraduate students wishing to further their dementia care education and/or professional development.

Developed by leading academics at the University of Wollongong, Queensland University of Technology, and Griffith University, this free resource includes content about (i) types of dementia and the impact of dementia on a person with dementia and his/ her carer, (ii) assessment and screening for dementia, and (iii) communication in dementia care. These are the three essential elements of good quality dementia care.

The EADTSC welcomes and encourages interested students to access this website by going to their link - see attached.
For further information on the website and or the EADTSC, please contact Belinda Fabrianesi on (02) 4221 3422 or (02) 4221 5927.
