The course is composed of a 2.5 hour online or F2F training delivered through a slide deck presentation which takes the learner through content which covers theory around Dementia; pain and behaviours. We also cover a practical element were the delegates have an opportunity to complete an assessment on their devices by using a case study. We cover how these areas are related and the challenges that PainChek resolves. There is also a short 30-minute online training course on our webpage which delegates can complete and generate a certificate of training.
PainChek is a clinically proven medical device to improve pain assessments and pain management for people living with dementia or other cognitive impairment. The digital tool is currently available in the care home market, with expansion plans to extend into the home care market soon. PainChek is designed to be used by nurses and carers whilst providing care to residents throughout the day or during key interventions which may trigger pain.
