Dementia Training Standards Framework
Awareness, Skills and Leadership Training
The national Dementia Training Standards Framework sets out what health and social care staff should know about dementia at three tiers, and the CQC expects staff to have the training their roles require. PMH dementia training covers all three framework tiers, from dementia awareness for every member of staff to leadership for managers and dementia leads.
Framework Tier 1
Dementia awareness
Everyone working in health and social care, including staff who are not care workers, such as reception, housekeeping, kitchen and maintenance teams.
Framework Tier 2
Dementia skills and knowledge
Staff who work regularly and directly with people living with dementia, such as care workers, senior carers and nurses.
Framework Tier 3
Leadership in transforming dementia care
Managers, team leaders, dementia leads and those responsible for implementing and evaluating dementia training in their organisation.
