Hello All

Hi All

Welcome to 2011!!

As discussed in our lesson, we will be using this blog on a regular basis. I would like you all to communicate any new updates, information, news etc regarding your findings about Dementia and Unit 40 via this blog space. I will be checking it regularly for updates and may be putting updates on here also.

Remember when using the blog there are key groundrules: Use it professionally - it is not a space to air your grievances or complaints, Validity - just because it is written on here does not mean it is accurate always check that the information you have and the source it is from is genuine and correct.
