Posted by Editor on 18th August 2012 at 01:09 PM Let's talk about Dementia
Do you have experience of what Dementia is? Are you interested in finding out more?
If you know of anyone who would be interested in talking about their experiences of using Dementia services from GP onwards contact Caroline Allport, Development Worker (Older People)See contact details below.
• Do you use mental health services especially around dementia for older people in Salford, or care for someone who does?
• Do you want to get involved in shaping these services for older people?
• Tell us what you have experienced.
• Do you want to represent the views of others?
Many older people in the community have not had a diagnosis for many reasons, but now Age UK Salford have been commissioned to help anyone at any stage, so if you know someone who may be worried about themselves or a loved one, or neighbour they can contact them informally on 0161 788 7300.
