We are Dementia UK – the specialist
dementia nursing charity that is there for
the whole family.
We know that when someone develops
dementia it doesn’t just impact the person
with the diagnosis – everyone around them
is also affected in some way.
That is why Dementia UK is here. We
continually support and develop Admiral
Nurses (registered nurses who have
specialist knowledge of dementia care)
whether they are working on our Helpline,
in virtual or face-to-face clinic
appointments, or in the community.
Admiral Nurses provide life-changing
support for families affected by dementia,
particularly during complex periods of
transition. They also provide education,
leadership, development and support to
other colleagues and service providers.
With the support of an Admiral Nurse
and Dementia UK, families are offered
reassurance, understanding and a listening
ear that helps them feel more in control.
We are here to make sure no one faces
dementia alone
What will be showcased on our stand?
We will describe the role and the impact of Admiral Nursing in Dementia Care and also showcase how Admiral Nursing services are commissioned in partnership with the NHS. In addition there will be a range of information sources to support delegates in widening knowledge of the work of Dementia UK and the needs of people with dementia and their families
