Delivering Quality Outcomes for People with Dementia

This one day event focuses on quality outcomes for people with Dementia and will open with a keynote address from Professor Alistair Burns National Clinical Director for Dementia NHS England who will discuss priority objectives for immediate benefits for people with dementia and their carers, improving diagnosis and post diagnostic support, de-stigmatising dementia and driving improvements in health and care.

“We are only at the start of a journey when it comes to dementia care: as a society we have ignored the condition for much too long – and unless we get better at recognising and caring for people with dementia we will have failed the million people who will have the condition in England by the end of the decade.” Jeremy Hunt, Secretary of State for Health, 28th May 2014
