Dementia is a condition taking centre stage in all our lives but continues to be understood primarily as a deficit and dysfunction.
Taking a person-centred approach, informed by experiences of people with dementia, their families and supporters, this multi-disciplinary master's degree critically challenges common perceptions of dementia as a diagnosis solely of loss and despair.
Taught by experts and focusing on a human rights approach, you will learn how to maintain the well-being and dignity of people living with dementia while promoting the philosophy and practice of living, as well as possible, with dementia.
Our Dying Well with Dementia module was developed in collaboration with the end-of-life specialists from Dove House Hospice in Hull to give you practical insights into how people with life-limiting illnesses are cared for in the community.
Apply your learning to your current profession to create a positive impact within the field of dementia today.
