Standards of Care for Dementia in Scotland
Action to support the change programme, Scotland’s National Dementia Strategy
In June 2011, the Scottish Government launched the first Standards of Care for Dementia in Scotland as part of its action plan to improve dementia care and provide world class dementia services in Scotland. The standards are based on the Scottish Parliament’s Cross Party Group on Alzheimer’s Charter of rights for people with dementia and their carers and also what people with dementia have said is important to them.
