A response to the new Alzheimers Society Kate Lee, Alzheimer’s Society CEO, said: "Our new advert ‘The Long Goodbye’ tells the unvarnished truth about the devastation caused by dementia. … georgerook51.wordpress.com/2024/03/25/a-r…

1/4 @alzheimerssoc campaign “The Long goodbye” demonstrates that fund raising awareness is more important to Senior Management than representing dementia in all its forms, in a sensitive, balanced, and truthfully realistic way. This campaign falls short on each of these counts.

To anyone emotionally affected by the awful @alzheimerssoc advert; I introduce my great Grandma, 96 years young and living with #Dementia. Yes at times she forgets and gets anxious, down, frustrated etc. But she very much lives and we haven’t ‘lost’ her. No eulogy here thanks 😊

We know it's hard when unplanned medical admissions occur for anyone, but for people living with dementia (& carers) this can truly hit another level. Hear from Dave who talks about that, and the importance of having an emergency care plan in place-dcan.org.uk/blog/its-all-g…

My diagram for "PPI/ Participatory research and the Research Cycle" is now ready! 😊 Months of hard work, but co-produced & a visual resource for researchers who want to work meaningfully with communities #coproduction #publicinvolvement

@ZoeHarris_FRSA Were also looking at virtual wards after the summer and the potential they have to support people outside of hospital and hopefully help keep people at home - we'll be doing a DCAN event exploring in Sept/Oct most likely so I can share details when we have that firmed up

@Kearaoallen If only it were that easy. Documents already exist to do this (This is Me, Mycarematters profile etc) but they need to be a) seen b) read c) acted upon. Perhaps more important to work on ways to avoid a hospital visit whenever possible? #dementia

Great to see this document now available! If you are a person with #dementia, or you support someone who has dementia this is a great resource to help ensure you receive person centred care and support that understands your needs and wishes if you have to go into hospital💙
#DCAN@DementiaCan

We know that when someone living with #dementia requires emergency hospitalisation it can be distressing. So we co-designed a document for people to take to hospital to facilitate personalised care and support in busy hospital departments. 📍ow.ly/a4hj50PgYRT @Pers_Care

@ZoeHarris_FRSA Hi Zoe, thanks for your response! Yes a definite next phase of work is looking and who and how we can increase awareness and uptake of these documents! If you'd like to be involved in the conversation let me know and we can link up?

Some stark warnings in here, including around the enormous scale of the impact of dementia on people’s lives and the healthcare system. Yet another reason why decision makers need to prioritise it.
The Health Foundation@HealthFdn

We need a bold new approach from government that invests in the nation’s health. Why? Because by 2040, 9.1 million people in England will be living with major illness, placing strain on the NHS. Read our new #HealthIn2040 report 📈 health.org.uk/publications/h…
