OUR COURSES

The Level 2 and 3 Awards in Awareness of Dementia assess candidates’ knowledge and understanding of practices in the care of individuals with dementia. It deals with issues such as person-centred approaches, factors that can influence communication, the impact that diversity, equality and inclusion can have on the individual’s experience of dementia and the administration of medication.

The units in these qualifications are closely linked with the competence based units in the Certificates in Dementia Care and the Diplomas in Health and Social Care as they share the same knowledge content. Thus, the knowledge gained through the achievement of these qualifications can be used to demonstrate competence in the Certificates in Dementia Care and the Diplomas in Health and Social Care.
