We recommended the following be considered in the strategy:

  • The strengths and weaknesses of various partners involved in delivering this
    strategy need to be considered and addressed.
  • The need for continued engagement activities throughout the life of the
    strategy.
  • A focus on how demographics will be captured throughout the different activities to ensure that the strategy achieves its aim of reducing inequalities.
  • A single point of access for information regarding dementia services in
    Birmingham and Solihull.
  • Engagement with service users, families and carers in developing the ‘One Campaign’ to inform the content of the communication materials.
  • Greater emphasis on sharing information between services and ensuring a clear line of accountability.
  • Training extended to all staff involved in the care and support of people with dementia.
