Patient Resources

Located within a centre of research excellence at the University of Sydney’s Brain and Mind Centre, we are dedicated to helping you feel clear about your cognitive health and what you can do to support it.

As a geriatrician, Dr Ireland’s specialty is in the care of older patients and the diseases that affect them, particularly the modifiable factors in brain ageing and ways we can reduce the risk of dementia. Here you’ll find resources for patients and carers on geriatric syndromes, cognitive health and what support services are available.
