See CRICOS-registered alternativesThis subject will present a range of advanced topics related to international best practice in dementia care. This year, Advanced Topics in Dementia Care focuses on understanding and addressing the issues faced by people with dementia in seldom-heard groups. We will explore the experiences of people with dementia, from culturally and linguistically diverse groups, with diverse sexual orientation or gender identity, residing in correctional service facilities, living with comorbidities (physical and intellectual), who are homeless, those who are care leavers (includes child migrants and stolen generations) and veterans. We will explore assumptions and possible prejudices, raise awareness of health issues, and investigate how we can improve assessment, management and care to help overcome the challenges faced by many in these seldom-heard groups.
