Integrated care systems improving dementia diagnosis
Integrated care systems are enabling the improvement of dementia diagnosis by supporting collaborative working across the health and care system according to research from The King’s Fund. While there is much more progress to be made, integrated care systems (ICSs) present a significant opportunity to enhance ways of working between different services and to enable people to receive improved dementia diagnoses and more co-ordinated support. Commissioned by the Alzheimer’s Society, it examines this progress through the lens of dementia, exploring the enablers and barriers to improving diagnosis rates.
