“Dementia: Respect and Respite – D-Care”

    The program is dedicated to training carers of people who suffer from dementia. Caregivers can be either professionals, family members of people with dementia, or volunteers. In particular, an educational program will be created, and lessons will be delivered both online and by physical presence of stakeholders. Professional and non-professional carers will be able to gain specialized knowledge of caring for people with dementia.

The main objectives of the program are:

1. To develop a specific method that will help people with psychosocial problems caused from dementia, to improve their standard of living and gain confidence with their social integration.
2. Training of professional carers and other stakeholders
3. A better understanding of the disease and its consequences in order to maintain a good quality of life for patients and their autonomy.

  More than 2,000 people will benefit directly or indirectly from the project’s activities. Visit the program’s website: http://dcare.training/
