If you have a diagnosis of dementia, or care for a person with a diagnosis, you should have access to a care co-ordinator. This person will help you find and manage support.
A care co-ordinator could be a:
- dementia adviser
- care manager
- social worker
- mental health nurse
- another practitioner involved in your care
Depending on your needs, you could be offered support including information and advice and signposting to other services. You may also get help with assessments:
If you are not sure who your co-ordinator is or you would like support, please call 01344 823220.
