“This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand, design, and improve our approach to workforce knowledge in dementia care. Paul Edwards, Director of Clinical Services, Dementia UK, states, “Its person-centered, theory, and practice-based approaches to learning make it an essential book for everyone involved in the delivery, review, and commissioning of dementia education. Dr. Anna Jack-Waugh, Senior Lecturer in Dementia, Senior Fellow HEA, Alzheimer Scotland Centre for Policy and Practice, the University of the West of Scotland, UK, adds, “A relevant, innovative, and important book that can underpin better education and training in dementia care.” Jesper Bøgmose, Associate Professor, Cand. Cur., Faculty of Health, University College Copenhagen, Denmark, emphasizes, “In the last twenty years, the evidence-base for how to provide person-centered care for people with dementia has grown significantly. Despite this, until recently, there has been little evidence as to how to provide training and education for the dementia workforce. This book provides an evidence-based, practical resource for people intending to develop, deliver, review, or commission education and training for the dementia workforce. Throughout, the book: • Considers the importance of informal routes and mechanisms for workforce development • Examines the importance of context and setting conditions for successful implementation of training at individual, service, and organizational levels • Contains up-to-date international research evidence, case studies, and vignettes Education and Training in Dementia Care: A Person-Centred Approach is an accessible text aimed at all levels of prior experience, from those studying and working in health and social care services and private and third-sector organizations who are responsible for delivering dementia care.”
