“This book is a must read for those wanting to understand, design
and improve our approach to workforce knowledge in dementia
care.†Paul Edwards, Director of Clinical Services, Dementia UK
“Its person-centred, theory and practice-based approaches to
learning make it an essential book for everyone involved in the
delivery, review and commissioning of dementia education." Dr Anna
Jack-Waugh, Senior Lecturer in Dementia, Senior Fellow HEA,
Alzheimer Scotland Centre for Policy, and Practice, the University
of the West of Scotland, UK “A relevant, innovative, and
important book that can underpin better education and training in
dementia care.†Jesper Bøgmose, Associate Professor, Cand. Cur.,
Faculty of Health, University College Copenhagen, Denmark In the
last twenty years the evidence-base for how to provide
person-centred care for people with dementia has grown
significantly. Despite this until recently there has been little
evidence as to how to provide training and education for the
dementia workforce. This book provides an evidence-based
practical resource for people intending to develop, deliver,
review, or commission education and training for the dementia
workforce. Throughout, the book: • Considers the
importance of informal routes and mechanisms for workforce
development • Examines the importance of context and setting
conditions for successful implementation of training at individual,
service and organisational level • Contains up-to-date
international research evidence, case studies and vignettes
Education and Training in Dementia Care: A Person-Centred Approach
is an accessible text aimed at all levels of prior experience, from
those studying and working in health and social care services and
private and third sector organisations who are responsible for the
training and development of their staff, to commissioners of
training or those who wish to take advice to inform their practice.

Answering the Brigadier's space/time telegraph, the Doctor (Tom
Baker), Sarah (Elisabeth Sladen) and Harry (Ian Marter) arrive in
the village of Tulloch, near Loch Ness. A series of attacks have
taken place on local oil rigs, and many are blaming the legendary

shape-shifters are now intent upon taking control of the planet
Earth.

forced to land on the planet Exxilon after suffering a sudden power
loss. The Doctor (Jon Pertwee) and Sarah encounter a similarly
stranded expedition from Earth, who are seeking a cure for the
plague which is spreading rapidly across the galaxy. The Doctor
believes that he can find a solution in the technologically
advanced but long-abandoned city of the Exxilons, but becomes
caught up in a power struggle between the humans and the latest
arrivals to the planet: his old enemies, the Daleks.
Another adventure for everyone's favourite Time Lord. The Doctor
(Tom Baker), Sarah and Harry land on space station Nerva, where the
chosen few of the human race are in suspended animation, awaiting

the Wirrn has infiltrated the Ark and cut through the humans' alarm
clock. The Wirrn now intend to use the sleepers as the hosts for
their hatchings and claim the Earth as their own.

Two classic Doctor Who adventures set on the planet of Peladon,
starring Jon Pertwee as the Third Doctor, with Katy Manning as his
companion in the first story and Elisabeth Sladen in the second. In
the four-parter 'The Curse of Peladon' (1972), the Doctor (Pertwee)
finally seems to have escaped his exile to Earth when he manages to
transport Jo (Manning) in the Tardis to the planet Peladon. The
pair are mistaken for Earth delegates at a conference to decide
whether Peladon should join the Galactic Federation, and discover
that someone is attempting to use the legendary royal beast of
Aggador to trigger off a war. In the six-parter 'The Monster of
Peladon' (1974), the Tardis arrives on the Planet of Peladon half a
century after the Doctor's first visit. The planet has now become
of great tactical importance because of its focal position between
warring factions. The Doctor and Sarah (Elisabeth Sladen) have to
act as peacekeepers between rival ambassadors and they must also
find the truth behind 'the spirit'.

The newly regenerated Doctor (Tom Baker), assisted by Sarah, Harry
and the Brigadier, has to track down the theft of the components
for a powerful new laser gun, and the death of a prominent
politician. Sarah investigates the mysterious Think Tank, where it
becomes clear that robot K-1 is being misused by its political
extremist masters and the Doctor has to prevent the robot from
being used to start an atomic war. Tom Baker's first story as the
Doctor.
The TARDIS materialises in an English quarry where Sarah is
involved in a rock fall. When she is rescued, she is clutching a
stone hand, which takes control of her and forces her to take it
into the core of a nuclear reactor. The Doctor (Tom Baker) arrives
too late to stop the hand from regenerating into an alien lifeform
known as Eldrad, who demands to be returned to her home planet of
Kastria. The Doctor obliges, but all is not as it seems with
Eldrad. This was Sarh Jane Smith's last adventure with the Doctor,
although she later returned in 'K-9 and Company', 'The Five
Doctors' and 'Downtime'.
Two classic Doctor Who adventures, one from the 1970s and one from
the 1980s, both featuring those sinister humanoids the Cybermen. In
'Revenge of the Cybermen' (1975), the Doctor (Tom Baker), Sarah
Jane (Elisabeth Sladen) and Harry (Ian Marter) return to the space
station Nerva (from 'The Ark in Space') to recover the TARDIS. They
discover the crew decimated by a strange plague, to which Sarah
falls prey. The Doctor realises that the plague is part of a plot
by the Cybermen to destroy Voga, the planet of gold - gold being
the only thing which is lethal to them. At the same time the Vogans
are planning to destroy the Cybermen with their Skystriker rocket.
The three-part adventure 'Silver Nemesis' (1988) was made to
celebrate Dr Who's 25th anniversary. A statue, blasted into space
350 years ago, crashes into Earth in the core of a meteor. The
Doctor (Baker) and his assistant Ace (Sophie Aldred) must fight two
armies from different time periods, a regiment from 1988 and a
battallion of soldiers from 2688, whilst guarding the statue from
the clutches of the Cybermen.

Another adventure for everyone's favourite Time Lord. A may-day
call to the Doctor (Tom Baker) and Sarah takes them to the
outermost horizons of the Universe where they find a Morestran
military expedition stranded on a remote planet. The Doctor has to
battle an anti-matter monster, the unstable Morestran Commander
Salamar, and scientist Professor Sorenson, who is transforming into
a deadly Anti-man.
An alien pod discovered in the Antarctic takes over one of the
scientists who found it. The Doctor (Tom Baker) and Sarah arrive
too late; the scientist has already become a Krynoid, a carnivorous
alien plant life. Although they manage to destroy the first
Krynoid, a second pod is obtained by plant fanaticist Harrison
Chase, who intends to nurture the creature to his own ends. The
Doctor calls in UNIT to stop Chase before the Krynoid grows and
destroys all animal life on the Earth.
The Doctor (Tom Baker) and Sarah Jane return for a visit to Earth,
only to discover that a wave of evil Mandragora energy has hitched
a ride on the TARDIS and is now being used to plunge mankind back
into the dark age. They have to thwart not only the murderous
count, but also prevent the mad monk Heironymous and the Cult of
Demnos from unleashing the Mandragora Helix on mankind.
The Doctor (Tom Baker) and Sarah (Elisabeth Sladen) arrive on storm
ridden planet Karn, where mad scientist Dr Solon (Philip Madoc) is
creating a hybrid monster body for the brain of renegade Time Lord
Morbius (voice of Michael Spice). Also on the planet are the
Sisterhood of the Flame, who believe that the Doctor has been sent
by the Time Lords to steal their Elixir of life. The Doctor must
convince the Sisters of his good intentions and prevent Solon from
returning Morbius to life.
The Doctor is on a mission, travelling back to the middle ages to
locate some missing scientists. He is, however, seriously
inconvenienced when he meets a Sontaran warrior. Jon Pertwee stars.
