Fundamental needs in dementia - an animation from the CAIT and Newcastle Model series

This animation is a product of a collaboration between CNTW NHS Trust and the British Psychological Society, Division of Clinical Psychology (Faculty of the Psychology of Older People - FPOP). The animations in this series are part of a training programme called Communication And Interaction Training (CAIT), which encompasses the ‘Newcastle Model’. This training is supported by a book entitled ‘Communication skills for effective dementia care’ (James and Gibbons, 2019, London, Jessica Kingsley, ISBN-13: 978 - 1785926233).

That was a very insightful list for both the person living with dementia and for the caregiver ❤

Great list, thank you. It helps explain, some of the behaviours, my husband has. He has mixed dementia, and has been in long term care for a year.
