However, person-centred care, which involves knowing the person, their preferences, and life experiences, is the key to supporting older people who exhibit changes in behaviour. When tailored to the individual, alternative therapies and approaches are more effective and provide better outcomes for the older person.

In this webinar, our panel of experts  discuss why investigating the causes of behaviour change is essential for better health and wellbeing outcomes. They  also explore practical strategies for supporting people living with dementia.
