Webinar: Dementia Care

Thanks for your interest in our webinar about Dementia care. During this webinar, Future Skills Academy Head of Health, Marie Laycock, will talk about the communication and behavioural issues that can affect someone with dementia and how you can learn more to support people with dementia and other ageing-related conditions.

Date: Wednesday 17 May

Time: 12pm - 12.30pm

Employment opportunities for healthcare assistants are good due to the increasing demand for their services from an ageing population. You can gain a recognised qualification with us and pursue your healthcare career by enrolling in our 36-week part-time NZ Certificate in Health and Wellbeing (Healthcare Assistance Strand) (Level 3).
