Rights do not expire with age or cognitive decline. Edition III

  Fecha:
 Tipo: Curso
 Línea de conocimiento: 
 Localización: Donostia-San Sebastián

This summer course organised by the UPV/EH in collaboration with Matia Fundazioa aims to update knowledge and address the most relevant problems in the care of people with dementia. 

Although scientific updating is part of our social responsibility, it is not possible to advance towards excellence without a real enthusiasm for learning, reflection and improvement of our skills in patient care. Vocation is rarely recognised at an academic, social or economic level, which is why, through this activity, we want to give value to the will to improve.
