Amrita health centre, Shadipur, PortBlair
The course is very well designed by Dr Preethi Ma'am and is elaborately discussed in the easiest possible way by Dr Ruthshee and Dr Ramya. It was more interactive and involved the participants in the learning through quizzes, case presentation and group discussion. The case simulations by Dr Preethi Ma'am and her team were outstanding and gave us a working experience on how to interview and interact with patients who have signs and symptoms of Dementia and related illnesses.
Overall it is more informative, educative and stimulating in learning about Dementia and how to examine such patients through simple screening procedures and available tools at the level of General practitioners. I would recommend to my friends who are passionate about making a difference in their general practice by implementing these methods. Also, the support the team provides after the course is phenomenal and is of great significance.
My
recommendation is to make it more interactive and involve the
practitioner in the course to give a more elaborate working experience
with Dementia patients.
