People living with dementia in the UK can occupy approximately 25% of general hospital beds. However, nurses and other hospital staff do not always feel confident and skilled in the provision of care to this group. A new training programme has been designed to address this issue and increase staff knowledge, confidence and skills in the delivery of care to people with dementia in general hospitals.
