Baseline assessment of current information provision to people with dementia and their carers (PDF, 364K, 48secs)About this report
There is evidence that people with dementia and their carers do not receive sufficient, clear information about the condition, services available, what to expect as time goes on and where to get help. There is, however, every indication that better information at the right times can sustain care partnerships and enhance quality of life for both people with dementia and their carers.
Dementia information project
This project has been funded by NHS QIS as a baseline assessment of current information provision. The findings will contribute towards the implementation of the standards for integrated care pathways (ICPs) in mental health (2007) and the development of Alzheimer Scotland guidelines.
