Dementia care lacking

Community nurses are the most proactive but it's still not enough. There is a lack of joined up working can make the care received for dementia patients inconsistent. For physical issues care plans / pathways are reactive but with dementia this is not the case, it's a slow system. Where medication takes time and delays cause further deterioration.
