Dementia is one of the major causes of disability and dependency among older people worldwide. One of the main problems in long-term care services is the lack of knowledge of professionals and direct care staff on symptoms of dementia, changes at the physiological, cognitive and behavioral levels and interventions in activities of daily living. There are different VET programmes for care staff, however, stakeholders think that learning content about dementia is not enough considered in the training curriculums of the European Countries at EQF level 4. The European strategy for the prevention of dementia has pointed out that the situation of dementia requires great efforts in national VET systems to provide caregivers with a global overview of dementia in order to face day-to-day problems (with orientation, communication, etc.) and to break taboos of the topic of dementia. In the same way, it would be important to improve professional knowledge and skills on dementia in the community healthcare services of the European countries (Alzheimer Europe, 2019).In this sense, the Danish Dementia Research Centre (DDRC) has developed a set of open educational resources (the app “Videns on Demens” and the e-learning platform “ABC dementia care”) addressed to basic care staff and professionals in long-term care services. The app is a widely used observation tool for caregivers available in Danish language and is considered as a successful experience since in 2016 it was used 52,550 times (user sessions) and had 15,575 users. In 2017 they considered managing about 26,000 online users in the platform ABC dementia-care.With this in mind, AppForDementia project partners have agreed on to create a set of open educational and multilingual resources on dementia, based on the Danish experience, with the purpose of implementing these resources in the national VET programmes for apprentices and professional caregivers in long-term care services.The specific objectives of the project are the following:• To define a methodological framework for transferring the Danish open educational resources to participant countries.•To propose an international training curriculum about “Symptoms and interventions for people with dementia” at EQF level 4 described in terms of training units and learning outcomes.•To develop a set of learning contents and training materials on symptoms and interventions for people with dementia. •To create and test a multilingual educational APP addressed to care staff, trainers, students, and professionals of the care sector.•To create and test a multilingual e-learning course on Dementia symptoms addressed to trainers, care-staff, and professionals.The project considers about 25 associated organizations in the different activities of the project. The target group is estimated about 10.000 people.The direct target groups of the activities of this project are the following: • Caregivers, basic care staff, nurses, and professionals in the long-term care services • Trainers and teachers in care educations • Students at care educations • Decision makers in the field of education However, relatives of people with dementia will also benefit from the project results and the final beneficent is the person suffering from dementia.The results of the Project are the following:-A methodological framework for OERS, based on a training curriculum about “Symptoms and interventions for people with dementia” at EQF level 4.- International seminar, multiplier events and workshops for developing open educational resources.- An educational app and an open e-learning course for care staff, trainers and students in the care sector. The most important expected impact is the improvement of the capacity and competencies of caregivers and the competencies of teachers/trainers/educators to be able to take care of and reply professionally to the specific and particular needs of people affected by Dementia. As a consequence, the app and the other results of this project could increase the quality of life for people with dementia and help to prevent abuse and neglect of the elderly.The consortium of the project is formed by an NGO managing a group of nursing homes in several Spanish regions (MENSAJEROS, ES); a vocational training centre in Denmark (SOSU OSTJYLLAND, DK); a NGO in the social sector in Italy (ANCIANI E NON SOLO, IT); an association for elderly care sector in Romania (HABILITAS ASSOCIATIA, RO).
