In April, 9News Perth reported on new virtual reality technology developed by DTA to help care staff walk in the shoes of a person living with dementia.
The technology is used within DTA-led workshops (titled ‘Meaningful Spaces’), which focus on medication management and the impact of good design for people living with dementia. The workshops are aimed at health and aged care staff.
