Excited to share that the national RCT for Empowered Conversations has just started. All details below, Greater Manchester has opened first so we are looking for #family #carers of people with #dementia still living at home. Please share out with those who would benefit.

Empowered Carers offer one to one dementia focused therapeutic support for family caregivers. Based on #NYUCI, we support families to live as well as they can with a dementia. Keeping people well in their caregiving role and families together for longer. #UKDA #dementia #greatermanchester

Prevention sits at the core of our work, while we can do nothing to halt the progression of #dementia, we can support #family #caregivers in #greatermanchester to stay well within their caring role, enabling families to stay together at home for longer, avoiding carer breakdown and associated costs.

We've been delivering Empowered Conversations at Salford Royal for a few years. The #course offers attendees a space to pause and think about #communication, get #curious around how #dementia impacts on a person's ability to communicate and then try out some new ways to #connect. Great feedback!

I could bang on about outcomes or what the course will offer you, or I could just share this quote from somebody who has just finished the course!
