Student Profile(s)
Dr Andrew Risbridger - MSc Dementia Studies student
This course enabled me to gain an up-to-date understanding of what dementia is and the latest diagnostic approaches and treatments while stretching my thinking and helping me to remember that it is real people who are facing these difficulties.
Dr David Denton - PG Cert Dementia Studies student
As a higher trainee in old age psychiatry, I have found the MSc in Dementia Studies to be a valuable tool to help develop an in depth knowledge and understanding of many aspects of dementia. It has helped me to meet many competencies in the RCPsych curriculum and to help me critically appraise the evidence around treatments and interventions as well as learning to maintain excellence in the care and support of service users, families and carers.
