Dementia Action Week 2021
This month HealthWISE joins Dementia Australia spreading the word in raising awareness about dementia. Dementia affects a lot of Australians. In fact, nearly half a million Australians are living with dementia, with almost 1.6 million people involved in their care.
Wherever you are across our region, you can get involved in Dementia Action Week 2021
(20 – 26 September). This year, the theme is: “A little support makes a big difference”
HealthWISE is actively involved in Dementia Care in the New England area providing a Memory Assessment Program referral pathway for GPs, advice and support for carers of people living with dementia, and a Dementia Carers Support Group.
HealthWISE has also produced a series of videos – Caring about Dementia, for carers of people living with dementia with some tips and hints that may help. These videos can be watched at a time that suits during the journey in caring for someone with dementia.

HealthWISE offers services and programs across two states and nine offices. We value the health and safety of our staff, clients and communities. We have a COVID Safe plan in place for all our offices to deliver services safely. Our staff follow procedures to comply with public health orders within the local government area of each office, and follow guidance from NSW Health and Queensland Health.
