Oakfield Education Centre is driven by the belief that ongoing professional
training in aged and dementia care is imperative for creating and sustaining a
person-centered approach
We currently offer 3 inter related programs aimed at improving the knowledge
and skills of those dedicated to improving care services for elderly people and
those living with dementia.
