Comment on Dementia e-learning for healthcare by Rowan Purdy

In reply to Elizabeth Behr. Hi Liz,

We have recently republished the e-learning workbooks that contain bite-sized learning materials and links to further learning resources. All are useful to those wishing to learn directly and to others wishing to share learning with others through teaching or supervising.

Each workbook is presented in an accessible, easy to understand format and can be completed at the learners own pace. Learners can go through the workbook online or print off the workbooks. Alongside the printable version of each workbook there are website links for any relevant handouts. Throughout the workbooks to test the learning there are various tasks and there is a short quiz at the end.

Many thanks Rowan, Editor, Dementia Partnerships

I lead this Dementia Challenge Project after Dr Khan left the project. We have now completed the project, we are in the process of analysing the results. The project has definitely helped increasing the rate of diagnosis of people with dementia in Surrey Downs area. It has also helped in identifying dementia early on thus helping the patients and carers to receive treatment and access other support services.

I am a Registered Nurse in Auckland, New Zealand and have recently completed a 4hr teaching session on Dementia, Delirium and Depression.

During this course we were advised to go to this site for further e-learning opportunities, but I don’t seem to be able to find them.

Hoping these are still available, I would appreciate your advice on how to find them.

Also whether or not we can print off a certificate on completion, stating our name and the number of hours taken to complete the course. This would go towards our mandatory 20hrs education annually required by the NZ Nursing Council.

Looking forward to your reply to lizandalf@hotmail.com

Many thanks

Yours faithfully
Liz Behr
