Australia operates a unique emergency and hands-on tactical team to support those living with dementia if their individual Behavioural and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia, or BPSD, becomes acute and critical and they are at risk of harm and that of others around them.
This team is called Severe Behaviour Response Teams. This service has been operating in Australia for about a decade, but you have probably never heard of them, know what they do, or how to access their service.
Well today you will discover who is the Severe Behaviour Response Teams, what do they do, how they do it, how you contact them, and how they are important to you and your loved one with dementia.

About me
My name is Tim England and I’m the host and creator of the podcasts Dementia Demystified. I’m also a Dementia Champion and a leading voice on dementia in Australia and I have been active in this area for over 14 years.
As a freelance dementia consultant and educator who De-mystifies and De-stigmatises dementia I advocate for people living with dementia and their families to live well. With a Masters of Dementia, I’m a Dementia Specialist, Family Advocate, Educator, Columnist, Public Speaker, and an Advanced Care Planner. My family has also been touched by dementia.
I hosted hundreds of free public dementia education events to raise the awareness of dementia. I’ve been featured in the Australian Journal of Dementia Care and was awarded the ‘Paul Harris Medal’ from Rotary International for Community Service.
My new YouTube channel called Ask a Dementia Champion has the goal of raising the level of dementia awareness and knowledge in the community and to de-stigmatise dementia more broadly.
My style is relaxed and use simple non-complicated terms and language to effectively inform and advise so that correct choices are made, and I’m committed to finding, and sharing, bold and innovative new ideas in dementia care.
So, if you a looking for someone who can share information about dementias pathology, the impact of dementia on society, and what can be done to help, then you’ve come to the right place.
