Practice guidance for social work with people with dementia and their carers was developed by the College and published in 2015, helping raise the quality of social work practice in this crucial area.

This body will support the development of further specialisms in social work practice, including dementia, helping deliver our ambition to continue to raise the quality and status of a profession which plays such a vital role in improving the lives of our most vulnerable people.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 03/02/2016 16:33:52 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
