There’s a lot of information out there about #coronavirus.
But not all of it is trustworthy, and the situation is changing quickly.
If you have a loved one or neighbour with dementia who’s being advised to self-isolate, these tips might help you to keep them safe (thread) 💙
Morning! We are back and busy planning for dementia action week. On the 13th May our virtual dementia tour bus returns giving staff an insight into what it may feel like to live with dementia. Please contact [email protected] to book @Dementia_Nurse_ @EducationMatron
Stage 1 of project #banthebeaker has been rolled out. Next week we will be distributing to the rest of Medicine & Surgery too. If your patient uses a lid @ home let The SLT team know so they can issue a cup with a lid following an assessment! #nutrition#hydration#patientsafety
The Virtual Dementia Tour visits Wexham on 23 May, using simulation technology to demonstrate some of the challenges that people with the condition may be experiencing. Please contact [email protected] to book your place @FHFTnursing @Dementia_Nurse @michelle_youens ❤️❤️
