Welcome to our Dementia, Diabetes, Epilepsy and Asthma Care Awareness.
This course is a gem.
The course begins with a thorough introduction to dementia. You will explore the main types of dementia, learn how to recognise the early warning signs, and discover how lifestyle factors can help protect brain health. From there, you will follow the path to diagnosis, explore new thinking in dementia care, and understand how dementia affects the workplace and those who provide support.
Next, you will explore the growing challenge of diabetes in schools and care settings. You will gain a thorough understanding of what diabetes is, the difference between Type 1 and Type 2, the long-term dangers if left unmanaged, and how to spot the four Ts, the key early warning signs. You will learn how to create and follow an essential healthcare plan, carry out daily glucose checks, and respond to the two critical diabetes emergencies with clarity and confidence.
The epilepsy section equips you with the knowledge and practical tools to manage seizures confidently and compassionately. You will learn why epilepsy training matters, how seizures occur, and how to build a game plan that ensures fast, effective responses. From anticipating and recognising different seizure types to delivering emergency action when it counts, you will be prepared for the full range of situations that may arise.
You will also explore the daily realities of living with epilepsy and how to create truly inclusive environments. Practical classroom strategies, environmental considerations, and a structured toolkit for support staff will give you everything you need to promote safety and participation.
In the final section, you will focus on asthma, one of the most common conditions affecting school-aged children. You will learn how to manage and care for students with asthma, understand the correct use of asthma medication, and follow clear emergency management procedures when a child needs immediate support. The section closes with a focus on building a school-wide culture of asthma awareness, ensuring that every member of staff is informed, prepared, and confident.
By the end of this course, you will have the knowledge, awareness, and practical skills to support individuals living with dementia, diabetes, epilepsy, and asthma across a wide range of settings. You will be better equipped to act calmly in emergencies, communicate effectively with those in your care, and contribute to safer, more inclusive environments for everyone.
This is not just training, it is the foundation of genuinely compassionate, capable care.
