Alzheimer’s Disease International (ADI) has released its World Alzheimer Report 2022. “ADI hopes this substantial and comprehensive report will contribute to overcoming some of the apprehensions surrounding post-diagnosis dementia support and help identify some of the barriers to overcome – but also some opportunities that provide direction and hope.”
Among its recommendations, ADI calls for:
- National dementia plans to become a policy priority.
- Care to be person-centered, culturally appropriate, and gender inclusive and underpinned by robust care plans.
- Care to be coordinated and accessible, supported by a trained navigator or link workers.
- Education to be improved and expanded.
- Stigma to be further challenged.
