Alzheimer's Australia launched its Consumer Companion Guide: Diagnosis, treatment and care for people with dementia last month. It lays out the level of care that people with dementia and their carers and families should expect, and is based on the Clinical Practice Guidelines and Principles of Care for People with Dementia that were developed earlier in the year.
Both documents were produced in a collaborative project between people living with dementia, carers, researchers and clinicians that was funded by the National Health and Medical Research Council's (NHMRC) Cognitive Decline Partnership Centre.
