⭐️ Another @PriDemProject paper in @BMJ_Open ⭐️ Intervention to improve dementia support was feasible and acceptable, as were our evaluation methods. Inclusion of people with dementia in research - accessibility and relationship building are key. 👇bmjopen.bmj.com/content/14/7…

Interesting talk from Emily Spencer @PriDemProject at #33AEC. Great to see the project was so impactful in increasing the number of GP #dementia care plan reviews & improvements in what was in them. Although terrible that the baseline was only 37% when it’s been a requirement for many years

An interesting & comprehensive read - this month even better as there's an article on ILC's research on healthy ageing in Japan - and how Japan might learn lessons from the UK, for example about #DementiaCare from @alzheimerssoc funded @PriDemProject - see pages 54 to 55

Nearly 60% of people diagnosed with dementia are not getting the help they need. Tonight 6pm & 10pm @BBCNews, @BBC5Live, @BBCRadio4 speak to Bill & Jo Wilson. Jo lives with dementia, whilst Bill is struggling to access services they need, such as regular carers and respite.(1/3)

I'm at @alzheimerssoc conference today. Great to hear Prof Alistair Burns @ABurns1907 saying that social prescribing, personalised care, and encouraging creative group activities are key for those with dementia. As is peri-diagnostic support. #ASAC22
