Lead Organisation: North Wales Regional Partnership Board
56 people who live in Mold and the surrounding area shared their thoughts with us using the Listening Campaign Survey questionnaire. Additional feedback was provided at the campaign event in November. This provided insight about good dementia care, community, and the support and help that people living with dementia need. This is a summary of what they told us.
What good dementia care looks like.
- Care is person-centred and based around what matters to the individual.
- Unpaid carers, families, and friends are supported too and have opportunities for breaks from caring.
- People live as independently as possible.
- People can make their own choices and decisions about their care.
- People are treated with dignity, understanding, and patience.
- Enough experience care workers.
- Care and support in the right place and as close to home as possible.
- Access to information and advice.
- Plenty of groups and activities for people to choose from.
- Communities are dementia friendly, inclusive, and accessible.
- People have the best quality of life they can and are loved.
- Care and support at the right time.
- People have the practical support they need.
- Care is affordable and people have access to financial help and advice.
