Carer Workshop
Dementia Care ‘Everyday Practical Skills’
Scenario-based training that strengthens practical skills. If you support older adults, these workshops strengthen your confidence and your connection.
About
Using specialist ageing and dementia simulation kits, carers experience the physical, sensory, and cognitive challenges that can shape a person’s day. This lived experience approach helps carers understand the “why” behind behaviours and respond with empathy and skill.
Participants learn how to:
- Support personal care with dignity and reassurance
- Communicate effectively during moments of confusion or distress
- Understand sensory overload, reduced mobility, and cognitive changes
- Use practical techniques to reduce anxiety and increase comfort
- Approach everyday tasks with patience, clarity, and confidence
- Take home workbook for reflection
