The Scottish Government has asked the Mental Welfare Commission for Scotland to facilitate the development of standards for care as set out in the Dementia Strategy. These standards will cover all stages of the dementia journey and will apply across all care settings.
This work is being taken forward by a steering group with an independent chair, Professor Mary Marshall. The steering group has a wide membership that includes people with dementia, carers, Alzheimer Scotland and the Mental Welfare Commission amongst many others.
The steering group would like to invite anyone with an experience of dementia as a person diagnosed, a family member, carer or as a health, social care or housing professional or as a service provider, to attend one of the events taking place across Scotland in February 2011
