Dementia is one of our national priority areas, along with care and support at home and children who are looked after.

We know that things need to be done to improve social care for people living with dementia, including making sure people can find the care and support they need in rural communities, and using Welsh where it is people's first language.

A two and a half hour classroom-based training package to help those who work with people with dementia.

The session will give your staff a better understanding of dementia and its different forms and helps you achieve the aims of the Good Work Dementia learning and development framework.

Staff will also learn practical tips about improving the day-to-day experiences of people with dementia. The package includes guidance notes and video to support the facilitator.

Helping You Thrive

At Deepness Dementia Media, we provide a number of resources that encourage living well with dementia. Our mission is not to provide people with an absolute cure, but rather offer tools that allow for increased autonomy and enjoyment of life during the recovery process. Our radio station and online education, along with a series of other projects, help to bring people together and provide stimulation, purpose and enjoyment. The Deepness Dementia Media community incorporates not just people with cognitive impairment, but all of the stakeholders involved such as family members, young carers, friends, workers and educators.

We collected stories from students, staff and the local community from a nearby university. These stories recollected their experiences of lockdown during the Covid 19 pandemic. We then facilitated online workshops with a small group of the story contributors to analyse these stories and create a collective story in the form of a virtual art exhibition, to archive for the future.

3.1 Post diagnostic therapeutic interventions/rehabilitation

Improve access to and increase awareness of therapeutic interventions, which in turn reduces the use of antipsychotic medications. As part of this, we will wish to recognise the value of rehabilitation and therapeutic interventions post diagnosis and as part of COVID pandemic recovery.

Currently this area can be mapped across to the following in the DAP.

Living as well as possible for as long as possible

The need for increased support

Ensure health (including Wales Ambulance Service Trust - WAST) and social services have pathways in place to ensure the responsiveness of community assessment and ongoing management services.

Ensure that access to advocacy services and support is available to enable individuals to engage and participate when local authorities are exercising their statutory duties under the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014.

How we will report as part of this:

Provide a summary of outcomes reported through the ICF funded projects, which are being matched to areas of the DAP. This will include the dementia advocacy project hosted by Gwent on behalf of the RPBs which is about enabling people living with dementia access to services and support that they need and to have a voice in decisions that are being made.

Provide evaluation report in May with recommendations in relation to future phases of 'Ask a dementia expert which was established as a virtual national support service, initially in response to COVID.

Improvement Cymru's work to develop a resource to promote activity and skills for maintaining strength and balance requires further development and includes the production of All Wales resource for practitioners to support people and their informal carers and guidance for organisations and practice (working with a task and finish group).

Improvement Cymru's work to scope and develop resources with partner agencies and working with a task and finish group and designers to create a resource for use digitally and in hard copy).

Support the development of a prescribing protocol for anti-psychotic medication, with a focus on step down protocol.

Integrate our post COVID rehabilitation response for people with dementia and their carers with the national rehabilitation framework and forthcoming AHP framework programme rehabilitation actions.

Report on the work with the AHP consultant and the AHP dementia network for Wales.

3.2 Support for care homes

Including risk enablement rather than risk avoidance and access to rehabilitation and recovery support.

Currently this area can be mapped across to the following in the DAP.

Living as well as possible for as long as possible

Develop multidisciplinary 'teams around the individual' which provide person-centred and co-ordinated care, support and treatment as needed.

How we will report as part of this:

Provide a summary of outcomes reported through the ICF funded projects, which are being matched to areas of the DAP.

Continue to work with the care home sector to help support the rights based approach to care for people living with dementia and their families, and enabling access to the rehabilitation they require in response to COVID-19. This will include ongoing work supporting care home residents' wellbeing, identified through the work of the Care Home Action Plan.

3.3 Improved hospital care

Including work to support prevention of admissions from A and E, or reduce length of stay when an admission is unavoidable, embedding a clear rights-based approach in hospital care.

Currently this area can be mapped across to the following in the DAP.

Living as well as possible for as long as possible

Develop multidisciplinary 'teams around the individual' which provide person-centred and co-ordinated care, support and treatment as needed.

Increased need for support

How we will report as part of this:

Provide a summary of outcomes reported through the ICF funded projects, which are being matched to areas of the DAP.

Provide quarterly reports on the implementation of the hospital charter, led by Improvement Cymru.

The AHP consultant will work collaboratively with the National Clinical Lead for Falls and Frailty to embed dementia care standards in the hospital setting. We will report on the work of the All Wales Inpatient Falls Network and the AHP dementia network.

Improvement Cymru's work to develop an all Wales dementia care mapping strategy, which incorporates guidance for organisations and practice.

Provide an update to DOIIG on the recommendations by the dementia care in hospital report when published by the Dementia Cross Party Group, in order for group to consider next steps.

3.4 Palliative care

Timely conversations, advanced care planning and good end of life care

Currently this area can be mapped across to the following in the DAP.

Increased need for support

Ensure the 'teams around the individual' discuss the importance of making advance decisions and ensure an agreed palliative care pathway is in place.

Identify professionals who would benefit from training in initiating serious illness conversations, and provide such training.

How we will report as part of this:

The Objects of Comfort social media campaign has invited people to respond to items from the Museum's online collection and to share their own objects - the things that bring solace, that evoke memories, or help improve their mood or wellbeing during times of stress and hardship.

With the help of partners we are launching a new museum resource for care and group settings.

Our Objects of Comfort aim for the future is to give every care home in Wales the skills and materials to deliver activities based around Amgueddfa Cymru's collections. If you would like to get involved and be part of this exciting project, please get in touch!

See some of the activities below, on the following themes:
