Quick links
This pack contains a selection of quality assured awareness raising resources designed to promote living well with dementia. The resources include leaflets, factsheets, contact lists and a DVD.
The pack provides accessible information in the format that is suitable, appropriate and can be tailored for people living with dementia.
The pack was orginally intended for hospital care staff for use with people coming into hospital who may have dementia or experience symptoms associated with dementia. Although the pack is designed for use in a hospital setting there is clearly scope for it to be further developed for use in other settings, such as primary care.
The pack was orginally produced to support the implementation of the South West Hospital Standards in Dementia Care, intended to transform hospital care for people with a dementia.
Important messages from the research into the lived experience of people living with dementia, their carers, families and friends, includes:
- every person’s journey with dementia is unique
- people would like information tailored to their requirements at that time
- people want to be signposted and supported to information and resources
- sometimes people need support to understand and access what is on offer, and
- a key point of contact can make a real difference.
