This interactive course will help you to understand how the symptoms of dementia can impact the way people experience care environments, including day centres and residential care homes. You will learn how dementia affects visuospatial skills, such as depth-perception and judging distances, orientation and the senses, including sight and hearing loss. You will also learn how to evaluate the dementia-friendliness of care environments and explore practical changes you can make to create spaces that support the wellbeing of residents.
