Understanding the later stages of dementia

The later stages of dementia can be a challenging time both for the person experiencing dementia and for those close to them. This course is designed to help you understand what it is like to live with dementia in the later stages. We will explore the symptoms that a person may experience in the later stages of their dementia, look at the effect these can have on how a person with dementia behaves and communicates and the impact this can have on day-to-day life, families and carers.
