This course helps me to broaden my knowledge in dementia care. I do find the explanation is clear, the example given is applicable, and there are many updated aricles you can read... so satisfying.
It was a great course, I learned some thing new and piointers to assist with the care of persons with dementia. I would to see a section on caring for these individuals in a long term care setting.
Great lectures with helpful, timely discussions. Highly recommended even for individuals expecting to care for elderly parents with dementia.
This made me understand how much effort that our society should spend to develop the dementia care. This is a vital course that everybody must follow.
