Practical dementia education, support and capability building for aged care organisations
Supporting people living with dementia requires more than knowledge alone. It requires confident teams, capable leaders and environments designed to support people to live well.
At Thrive Aged Care Consultants, we work alongside aged care providers and organisations to strengthen dementia capability across training, leadership and organisational support.
Our approach combines practical education, real-world aged care experience and evidence-informed strategies to help teams build confidence and improve everyday dementia support.
Led by Kate, Kathy and the Thrive team, we focus on practical implementation – because understanding dementia and confidently applying that knowledge are not always the same thing.
Why dementia care matters?
Dementia continues to be one of Australia's most significant aged care challenges
According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, approximately 425,000 Australians are currently living with dementia, highlighting the growing importance of building dementia capability across aged care teams, leadership and service delivery

"Dementia Training with a Difference was fantastic and engaging training. It felt very accessible to learn, connect knowledge, skills and real-world considerations together to apply in our organisation.
I now feel I have an understanding of how brain change can explain many behaviours and considerations for people living with dementia that I am looking forward to being able to apply with clients ”Â
“This is hands down the best training day I have ever attended. It will give you real and meaningful ways to engage with your residents and help them to be who they are right now. Your mind will be blown, and you will see things in a different way. You will not be disappointed”
