1. ECCF: Fulfilling potential
Being a Fellow has opened doors for me. The recognition it brings, as well as the confidence it provides, has allowed me to make links that would have been impossible otherwise. Here’s an overview of what I have achieved so far:
Was part of the writing group for the Technology Charter For People Living with Dementia in Scotland as well as subsequent related publications. I worked closely with Alzheimer's Scotland and other partners to produce this important document which forms commitment 11 in Scotland's new Dementia Strategy
Presented at a Dementia Masterclass and also ran a workshop at recent conferences relating to technology
Currently running telecare pilot to investigate benefits and challenges in an acute psychiatric setting
Networked with a variety of professionals on technological initiatives and other developments….mainly using Twitter!
