[Focus on Dementia @FocusOnDementia]

We have worked with @alzscot and @ihubscot @SPSP_PC GP Faculty to update ‘A guide to making general practice dementia friendly’. The update includes changes necessitated by COVID-19 such as the use of technology for appointments: https://t.co/8QcAQEONnj

#dementia awareness week is from 31st May to 6th June. #DAW21. How about sowing some forget me knot seeds and tweet your pics so that those with dementia are not forgotten. You could also color in the poster from @alzscot and display in windows that week.
