I have 1 more tale to share later today but 1st
I'd really love to hear your Touching Tales.

"If someone’s worried there’s something wrong – like I was – get a diagnosis. A quicker diagnosis means more peace of mind, then you can fight it."
Alzheimer's Society supporter
Diagnosis is vital to give people access to the care, treatment and support they desperately need!

To recognise #DementiaActionWeek2025 #DAW2025 I'm sharing this quote from a care worker who completed the Empowered Conversations : Professional course in April.
#communication #training #greatermanchester #connection #dementia
Starting off Dementia Action Week with a quiz for staff, residents & visitors on #dementia knowledge, to identify a baseline. Also started our dementia specific #supervisions with staff which ended in some really big topics being discussed.

Today marks the beginning of #DementiaActionWeek2025 and this year's theme centres around the importance of early diagnosis.
@alzheimerssoc.bsky.social
A person living with dementia is always the expert
we just need to listen,
creating time & space to understand, listening to all methods & modes of communication
