Healthcare Providers
There is a lack of awareness and information on Alzheimer’s disease and related Dementias not only in the general public but in healthcare care providers as well. The majority of the healthcare care providers are often ignorant about the diagnosis and management issues. Therefore, there is a lack of trained manpower to provide medical diagnosis and treatment especially in the rural areas of the country. Considering this situation, Alzheimer’s Pakistan is running an health education program to provide reliable, accurate and up-to-date information on all aspects of diagnosis, management and care of Dementia. Our training program includes training on:
Early Diagnosis
Optimizing physical health, cognition, activity and well-being Detecting and treating behavioral and psychological symptoms Care management The training to health care providers is provided through lectures, workshops, conferences and short courses
