EARLYDEM

25/08/2022

Between August 22-24, the last Meeting of the European project EARLYDEM-Training of caregivers on early identification and diagnosis support of dementia (Erasmus+ KA2) took place at Lund University, Sweden. The duration of the program was from October 2019 to August 2022 with partners organizations from Sweden, Greece, Italy and France participated, including the Frodizo association.
The purpose of the project was to create an e-learning platform for training formal/informal caregivers of older people on the early diagnosis of dementia and mild mental disorder. The platform as well as the app for mobiles and tablets are now completed and anyone can use it any language of the partners organizations.

We would be very happy if you could try the platform and tell us what you think about it, if you find it useful and how would you recommend it to anyone else who is interested.
