People with dementia and their carers should be able to access general practice and receive the best quality care and support.

As a dementia friendly general practice we aim to provide better support for people with dementia and their carers by:

• Improving quality of care and support for people with dementia
• Supporting national frameworks and standards for dementia including the NHS England Well Pathway and the CCG Improvement and Assessment Framework
• Supporting key lines of enquiry of the Care Quality Commission
• Reducing missed appointments and repeat appointments
• Increasing dementia awareness and understanding for all practice staff, as well as contributing to personal development and job satisfaction
