Dementia Hawke's Bay Education Workshop

Melanie from Puketapu

Dementia Hawke's Bay is hosting an education Workshop. Please share this around as it would be of benefit to ANYONE who has ANYTHING to do with Dementia. Whether you are a Nurse, Doctor, carer, family member or in a community business who may come into contact with Dementia sufferers like Pharmacies, Hairdressers, Bank workers ...... I could go on. With the guest speakers and experts in the field, this will be educational, thought-provoking and inspirational. Not to mention the awesome lunch that will be provided by Pure Catering! 😋 This can also count towards your professional development hours if you are in the care/ health industry. It is being held at the Havelock North Function Centre on the 17th of October from 8:30am till 2:30pm. Message me if your interested to know more!
