This session delivered onsite to your team who are supporting people living with dementia will help participants to recognise symptoms of delirium, identify possible causes, promote recovery and develop prevention strategies for people living with dementia. Dementia increases the risk of developing delirium by approximately five-fold and if untreated can increase the risk of increased length of stay in hospital, further complications, cognitive and functional decline, and mortality.
