Online Support

We know sometimes it can be difficult, for a variety of reasons, to come into one of our Dementia Resource Centres, to get advice from our Dementia Advisors, or to find out more information about how Allied Health Professionals can support you, or perhaps to find out how to access Self-Directed Support. Therefore, we have set up a series of online surgeries that can be accessed from logging on to your computer or smart device.

Use our search option at https://www.alzscot.org/living-with-dementia/getting-support/online-support for details of the upcoming online surgeries that are available, along with instructions on how you can join.

The online surgeries are for anyone who is worried about their memory, has a diagnosis of dementia, is a carer or is a paid professional within the health and social services sector.
