Inservices & Inductions

DAS organises and convenes sessions specifically designed to be delivered to organisations who require staff to be familiar with aspects of Dementia, Carer Support Groups, Frail-aged and social groups, and any group who indicates a wish to be informed.

The Service will work with the organisation to create a programme to deliver the topics of interest. The sessions may be on general and/or basic information topics or, if an organisation finds its’ workers dealing with clients who are displaying certain conditions, tailored to present specific information and education.

The Service draws on a number of Health and Medical Professionals to deliver the sessions.
