This is a full-time role, working 5 days per week, 9am–5pm, although we will consider part-time applications.

- Empower carers by supporting them to build the skills and confidence needed to care for someone with dementia
- Provide guidance to carers as dementia-related behaviours change over time
- Help carers deliver high-quality care while safeguarding their own mental and emotional wellbeing
- Contribute to the ongoing development of the service, including evaluation and improvement of dementia care practices
- Offer clinical guidance to colleagues and external agencies
- Provide training and educational resources to support and enhance the quality of care
