| Annotation | The Centre for Sheltered Housing Studies (CSHS) commissioned this training pack with Pavilion, having identified a need for information and training for managers of sheltered housing schemes on how to support older people with dementia. The pack is divided into seven sessions: understanding dementia; ageism and the impact of dementia; individuality, diversity and personhood; managing behaviour and risk; working in partnership with other agencies; working with carers and families; and the role of the sheltered housing manager. The material comprises structured guidance notes for the trainer, background information for staff and trainers, and a range of photocopiable resource material. (RH). |
