Caring for Cognitive Impairment

People with cognitive impairment in hospital are at increased risk of preventable complications as they have difficulty with communication, speech or understanding language, memory, attention, thinking or judgment.

The Caring for Cognitive Impairment campaign is about providing better outcomes and experiences for patients with cognitive impairment in hospitals, and for their loved ones and staff who care for them. The campaign website has a wealth of information, tools, stories and resources aimed at those working in hospitals caring for people with cognitive impairment.
