Produced by NICE and SCIE, this guideline makes recommendations for the identification, treatment and care of people with dementia and the support of carers within primary and secondary healthcare, and social care. The guide is for health and social care staff who work with people with dementia and their carers, and those who work with older people and people with learning disabilities. This includes GPs, nurses, geriatricians, psychiatrists, social workers, care home managers and care staff. It also includes recommendations relevant to commissioners, managers and coordinators of health and social care.
