Does this draft strategy fully address issues of equality and diversity, and the needs of particular groups?
The draft strategy needs to consider carefully whether people with learning disabilities who develop dementia should be seen at the envisaged specialist memory services. This group often has considerable physical co-morbidities and different models of care and assessment may be appropriate. General comments Do you have any other comments you would like to make in relation to this consultation? The aims and objectives of this proposed National Dementia Strategy are laudable, although the omission of end of life care and planning is a major weakness.
