A course aimed at care staff working with people with Huntington's disease who would like to gain a deeper knowledge of Huntington's disease and develop their practice. We run this course with small groups of care staff to promote discussion and full participation.
This course will provide an understanding of what Huntington's disease is, how it progresses, and the impact it has on both the body and mind. You’ll learn about the genetic basis of the disease and how it affects movement, cognition, mood, and behaviour. By the end of this course, it is hoped you will feel better equipped to provide compassionate, informed care.
