National Audit of Dementia


What is the National Audit of Dementia?

The National Audit of Dementia is working with hospitals providing general acute inpatient services to measure criteria relating to care delivery which are known to impact on people with dementia admitted to hospital. 

 

Criteria include policies and governance in the hospital that recognise and support the needs of people with dementia, elements of comprehensive assessment, involvement of carers, discharge planning, and identified changes to support needs during admission.

 

The first round of audit took place in 2010. 99% of acute Trusts/Health Boards in England and Wales registered one or more sites to participate.

 

The second round of audit took place in 2012. All acute Trusts/Health Boards in England and Wales registered one or more sites to participate.
