Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust was one of nine trusts selected to take part in the RCN development programme transforming dementia care in hospitals during 2013. The programme aimed to improve the experience of care for people with dementia and their carers in hospital. This article outlines a two-day training programme delivered to staff on two pilot wards with a larger cohort of adults with dementia than other wards in Manor Hospital. A range of staff were trained including nurses, clinical support workers and allied health professionals and also, in a bespoke format, housekeepers, porters and security staff. The programme has led to a noticeable cultural change and significantly improved care and management of patients with cognitive impairment and/or dementia on the two pilot wards. As a result, the training programme has been implemented more widely across the hospital.
沃尔索尔医疗保健国民保健服务信托基金是2013年被选中参与皇家护理学院（RCN）改善医院痴呆症护理发展计划的九个信托基金之一。该计划旨在改善痴呆症患者及其护理人员在医院的护理体验。本文概述了一项为期两天的培训计划，该计划面向庄园医院两个试点病房的工作人员开展，这两个病房患有痴呆症的成年患者群体比其他病房更大。接受培训的人员包括护士、临床支持人员和专职医疗人员，此外，还以定制形式培训了清洁工、搬运工和安保人员。该计划带来了显著的文化变革，并显著改善了两个试点病房对认知障碍和/或痴呆症患者的护理及管理。因此，该培训计划已在全院更广泛地实施。
