Abstract
The Greenwich and Bexley dementia Care Home Team is a novel test-and-learn service designed to upskill care home staff and support residents living with dementia with behaviours that challenge. Clinical outcomes and qualitative feedback suggest a positive impact on care home staffs’ self-efficacy in the application of biopsychosocial approaches in reducing or understanding behaviours that challenge. Limitations and future directions are discussed.
