About Course
Delirium is a sudden change in a person’s mental state that is common in older people and those who are unwell, yet often missed. Learn how to recognise it, how it differs from dementia, what triggers it and how carers and families can help prevent it and support recovery.
This course provides general awareness only and does not replace clinical assessment or your organisation’s procedures. If someone is seriously unwell, call 999.
