Within this pack you should find everything needed to deliver individual training sessions or, combined, as a half or full day training course. The Supporting People with Learning Disabilities and Dementia pack aims to:

equip staff and volunteers with the confidence and knowledge to provide a high quality of support that is appropriate to each person with a learning disability and dementia
support staff and volunteers to reflect upon, and develop, the provision of care based on the experiences, context and preferred outcomes for each person with a learning disability and dementia
provide materials, information and points for discussion that will support ongoing learning and development.
The main objective of the pack is to promote holistic support that will maintain the abilities of the individual and provide them with services that meet their needs. It is important that people with a learning disability and dementia:

have choice and control over the support and services they receive, now and in the future
maintain meaningful and supportive relationships with family, friends and the wider community
remain in their own accommodation, if appropriate and desired.
Included in the pack are four resources:

1) The trainer guidelines, including the Powerpoints, resources and handouts needed to run the training.

2) Supporting People with Learning Disabilities and Dementia: A self-study guide for support staff and carers for trainers to refer to.Each section in the guide is structured around one of ten topic areas, ranging from background information about dementia and learning disability to end-of-life planning. Each topic area will prompt thinking about practice and development of skills, promoting changes to support which are focused around each individual, rather than expecting the individual to fit the service. The self-study guide can be used as a standalone resource and is available to purchase separately from the training pack for trainees who would like a self-study resource to refer to after the training.

3) Supporting People with Learning Disabilities and Dementia: A practice development guide for support staff and allied health professionals. The practice development guide provides an overview of content from the self-study guide and the trainer guidelines. It can be provided to learners at the training sessions to supplement the training materials and is available to download.

4) An online link to the 'Supporting Derek' film.
