Abstract

The article presents the views of several dementia care experts on what the National Dementia Strategy for England will mean for dementia services in Great Britain. Gwyn Grout says that the core message of the strategy is to reduce the dementia stigma. Chris Beech identifies lack of integrated planning and service delivery to be the main obstacles in dementia services. Hugh Chadderton says that comorbidities like hypertension and diabetes of older people with dementia are the neglected areas.
