Opći podaci o tečaju


Over 55 million people worldwide are affected by dementia and this number will continue to increase in the future, thus leading to challenges of health systems. In-depth knowledge of health professionals about dementia and its negative effects, such as nutritional problems, is necessary to pursue targeted prevention strategies and to provide adequate treatment and care. 

Therefore, the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on dementia and food nutrition was developed for the health sector.

Due to its conception, the MOOC will be available free of charge for various health care professions in German-speaking countries. In the future, an English-language version is also planned in order to further increase the amount of people that can profit from the MOOC.

This course is created by several university partners and therefore looks at many aspects around this topic. The target group of the course is all health professionals as well as interested lay people, which is why the course has been designed in the simplest way possible.

Also you might be interested in at least parts of this course.

The course has been designed with the intention of providing content for all health professionals and interested lay people. Both theoretical and practical learning contents offer a wide range of help also for interested lay people who, for example, care for a family member with incipient dementia.

In addition, the course is intended to serve as a basis for persons in health care professions to deepen their knowledge in one thematic area of the partners. With the positive completion of the performance review of this course, you are entitled to apply to one of the universities and take an examination in this field.

This course was created as a joint project of four universities in order to be able to look at the topic of dementia and nutrition from multiple sides. Theoretical and practical parts of various disciplines from nursing, occupational therapy, speech therapy, dietetics and nutritional geragogy were developed for this purpose.

This goal was achieved through intensive cooperation between teams from these disciplines at the universities MedUni Graz, FH Wiener Neustadt, FH JOANNEUM and PH Steiermark. Each individual team contributed to the success and quality to the highest degree. This made a unique course possible that can be used across the borders of federal states.

This course was created by

  • Sen. Scient. Dr. Sandra Schüssler from MedUni Graz (Technology and Health Topics, Nursing Science) in collaboration with Natalie Sofia Horn, MA (Room466 by WKO Steiermark) and Dr. DI Lucas Paletta with team (Joanneum Research Digital) and with the kind support of Dr. Maurice Chales de Beaulieu, M.A. (Managing Director MiiCare GmbH) and Univ. Prof.in Regina Roller Wirnsberger and team (University Clinic for Internal Medicine) through concept feedback. 
  • Wolfgang Staubmann BSc MSc, Manuela Hatz MEd, Eva Resinger BA BSc from FH JOANNEUM University of Applied Sciences (Dietetics and Nutrition and Logopedics)
