Introduction

The Living Well with Dementia (LivDem) course is an eight-week group intervention that aims to help people living with dementia talk more openly about their diagnoses.  

Structure

Content

The four training sessions will enable facilitators to deliver the course and will cover:

  • the LivDem model - talking with people about their diagnosis.
  • course content.
  • techniques of group work.
  • setting up and delivering groups

The fifth session is a follow up designed to help people to overcome any challenges in setting the course up locally. 

In order to help you to get the most out of this training, it will help you to have a copy of the Living Well with Dementia Course facilitator workbook to refer to. See more information about LivDem.
