Peer review 2012-13
Last year the NHS South West dementia programme led a very successful peer review of dementia care in general hospitals, focusing on the South West Standards of Dementia Care in Hospital and the National Audit of Dementia (CCQI, 2011), and this will be repeated in 2012/13.

This programme has been adopted nationally, by the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement, for its Call 2 Action on dementia care in hospitals.
