Whilst Ageing is not strictly a condition to be diagnosed, it can have a profound effect upon autistics. This 1-day course has been commissioned to support the Autism Dual Diagnosis programme.
Aim:
• Understand the physical, mental and emotional impact of autism on ageing;
• Adapt interaction and environment to ensure best outcomes for ageing autistic people;
• Ensure care staff recognise and are comfortable with behaviour and communication differences they may encounter in contact with ageing autistic people.
Venue:
Room 2.01, Hackney Service Centre, 1 Hillman Street, Hackney, E8 1DY
