Program Description
A University of Wisconsin–Madison School of Nursing team consulted with hospital staff and leadership, family caregivers of people living with dementia and community agencies during a two-year study. They will share those needs identified by hospital staff and family caregivers, and the team’s user-centered approach to developing dementia friendly training materials. They will also share how the resulting Dementia Friendly Hospital Toolkit can be used to develop and implement an organization-wide plan to increase staff awareness and skills to meet the needs of patients living with dementia and their family caregivers.
The Dementia Friendly Hospital Toolkit includes:
- An organizational guide that helps hospitals develop an ongoing training plan based on their goals and learning opportunities
- Eight interactive role play scenarios, with learning objectives, facilitator guides, scripts, handouts, and options for carrying out role play trainings
- Five short training videos, with learning objectives, handouts, and options for using the videos
- Additional resources that help hospitals measure progress, align their dementia friendly work with Age-Friendly Health Systems initiatives, and provide additional context on the common needs of and supports for people living with dementia and their family caregivers.
