Guideposts Care Research Centre exists to identify and promote best practices in the care of those who live with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. The aim is to ensure that people are able to be cared for and live with dignity throughout their illness whether at home or in care.
Guideposts Hints and Tips Factsheets have been produced from our four year research study into best practice funded by the Department of Health.
There are 10 Factsheets:
-
Understanding Dementia
-
Person Centred Care
-
Communication
-
Life History
-
Helping a Person with Personal Care
-
Keeping Active and Occupied
-
Helping a Person to Eat and Drink
-
Behaviours that Challenge
-

-
Carer Support
The Factsheets can be downloaded from the Dementia Web site or ordered by telephone 0845 120 4048
Hundreds of carers across the UK have already found Guideposts Factsheets an invaluable source of information and practical advice.
