Virtual Dementia Tour This revelatory experience - the only scientifically approved way to experience dementia - will grant access to an outstanding professional tool that offers caring professionals a unique and essential perspective into the experience of living with dementia. By the end of the tour, participating attendees will be able to recognise the issues faced by people
living with dementia and will gain fresh, meaningful insight into how care providers can best provide the correct provision of services to meet their needs.
The Virtual Dementia Tour has already
been experienced by care home staff, the CQC, NHS workers, and many other professionals across the UK. The tour is recognised to change practice and has been shortlisted for two awards by Skills for Care and the Times Educational Supplement.
Continuing Personal Development Continuing Personal Development (CPD) refers to the holistic commitment of professionals towards the enhancement of personal skills and proficiency throughout their careers, combining different methodologies of learning. This includes training workshops, conferences and events, e-learning programs, best practice techniques, and idea sharing – all focused towards helping individuals improve their professional development. The CPD Service helps organisations such as UK Care Week formalise knowledge into a structured and recognised approach. All of the free-to-attend seminars at this
year’s UK Care Week are CPD-accredited, so attendees should ensure they keep a record of the seminars they have attended and their contents.
