Prior to this position I’ve worked in Nursing or Care Homes Forensics, PICU, and Acute clinical settings. I strongly feel I can transfer the experiences acquired to the post.

Firstly, an understanding on Dementia illness and care management for dementia such as communication methods for assessing pain with verbal and non-verbal cues, safety measurements which includes crash mats and alarms falls risks prevention methods, application safe guarding measures for vulnerable adults, assessments and referrals to (SALT) speech and language teams when necessary.
