Excellence in Dementia Care Award 2009

Project funding of up to £7500 and professional development and support are available to nurses who wish to undertake projects that contribute to the National Dementia Strategy, in particular projects that will work directly with patients. Applicants must show clear evidence of need, user involvement in the development of the project and innovative ways of working.

Nurses working in community, outreach or acute settings are able to apply. The QNI offers three professional development workshops for project leaders during 2009-10.

The closing date is 26 January 2006. For more information please visit http://www.qni.org.uk/project-funding/fund-for-innovation.html or contact Anne Pearson, Practice Development Manager at the QNI on 020 7549 1400 or email anne.pearson@qni.org.uk to discuss your ideas.
