AnnotationWhat can research tell us about the effectiveness of training to support and enhance communication with people who have dementia? The author appraises the evidence, focusing mainly on care workers in residential and day care settings. Family carers also rate communication difficulties as among the hardest to deal with, and support approaches that would serve their needs are examined briefly, too. (RH).
