Managing Dementia in Primary Care - Training Videos

Dementia is a difficult subject and preparation is key to delivering this training in a way that is sensitive and effective.

Dementia is a hugely important topic for all practice staff as our population is getting older and dementia will become more common in our communities. 

Our training videos are hosted on our WaMH in PC YouTube Channel. However, some organisations - including NHS Wales - block access to YouTube on their networks and computers.

If you're unable to open videos on your computer please contact NHS Wales Informatics Service (NWIS) on 08450 267 297 or at primarycare.servicedesk@wales.nhs.uk or your IT department .

You can also contact Lesley Hills at lhills@rcgp.org.uk or on 029 2050 4516 if your IT department cannot access the material.

The following videos are based on feedback from patients and carers as they want ALL staff to understand dementia better because ALL staff have an impact on aspects of dementia care.

• Section 3: Timely Diagnosis
• Section 4: Memory Clinics
