Scenario 1: Responding to needs & a PRO overivew
Summary
Dementia is complex, and the care workers, your clients and their carers will ask you a broad range of complicated ad hoc questions or changes in needs.
You can easily search for evidence-based and contemporary solutions within the PRO’s world-first comprehensive dementia journey, which can be found in the ‘Home’ tab.
You can watch the video or read the text below for an overview introduction for the PRO and how it can help you respond to needs instantly.
see transcript here.
Getting started
Here is the PRO’s “Home” screen, where you can see the world’s first comprehensive dementia journey to help you, your clients, their carers and care workers.
If your client has a need or question on 'driving' for example, you can easily 1) click on the journey tiles, or 2) search (more below) for suggestions on care strategies, system navigation and referrals.
How to search?
Instead of 'Googling' online, which can be overwhelming and risk prone, you can easily:
1. Enter relevant keywords in the search bar in the ‘Home’ screen (e.g. driving, EPOA, falls, diagnosis, denial, hoarding, repetition, wandering etc.)
2. Click on the Search results/s
3. Share (or Save, Mark Done for printing or conversation) the practical, evidence-based and contemporary suggestions and solutions instantly, including care strategies, system navigation, referrals and more.
