PALLIATIVE AND END OF LIFE CARE
Project Aim: Providing more information about end-of-life care for people living with dementia and carers will support people to access care when they need it. This will lead to reduced distress and avoid unnecessary hospital admissions at the end of a person’s life.
QUALITY OF DIAGNOSIS
This project is separate, but closely related to, ongoing work in Greater Manchester around the Target Dementia Diagnosis Rate. This is a national ambition that two thirds of the estimated number of people with dementia in England should have a diagnosis with appropriate post-diagnostic support.
DEMENTIA AND BRAIN HEALTH
