Caring Conversations is an online forum for care partners of people living with dementia to learn from experts, share concerns and ask questions.
不良研究所 Cares was launched by the Dementia Education Program during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, on May 13, 2020, while many of us were isolating at home. Claire Webster, Founder of the Program, had the idea to record short interviews with different experts on topics of interest to care partners of people living with neurocognitive disorders to help educate and support them during this difficult time.听
What is the Steinberg Centre for Simulation and Interactive Learning (SCSIL)?
