“What is living” @george_rook talks about the need to make homes 🏠 for people with dementia wherever they may be living. “A care home should not be sterile like a hotel” #ASAC19 #DAW2019

'We are the same people, just with a diagnosis of dementia. Treat us like anyone else!'

We have launched our vision for the future of general practice today #FutureVisionGP

[Alzheimer's Society @alzheimerssoc]

Someone with dementia may be more likely to walk about at night if they're feeling anxious, especially if they've been placed in uncertain new surroundings such as a care home.

Understanding the person's needs and feelings is vital.

If you look after a partner, relative or friend who is disabled or ill due to physical or mental health, you are a carer, even if you don’t think of yourself as one.

These bright blankets have helped dementia patients recognise their bed spaces which has led to less confusion on the ward, and resulted in fewer falls. What a wonderfully simple initiative! 🙂

'This research adds flesh to the bones of a worrying pattern we’re starting to see in the UK. Black men are receiving fewer diagnoses than white men, despite prevalence being higher amongst black men.'
