Training on Dementia Care for Domestic Helpers
Caring for a person living with dementia is not a simple task. In Hong Kong, domestic helpers are one of the key sources of support for family care at home. With the right knowledge and practical skills, families can gain greater peace of mind, and helpers can also reduce work-related stress.
To support this, the Jockey Club Centre for Positive Ageing will be hosting a free online seminar, “Training on Dementia Care for Domestic Helpers,” on 3 October and 10 October 2026 (two consecutive Saturdays). This course is specially designed for domestic helpers who are currently caring for persons with dementia, designed to provide domestic helpers with comprehensive skills training. We encourage employers to register their helpers and to assist them in setting up a personal email address for Zoom access.
