| Annotation | The authors, representing Dementia UK West Midlands, have begun to support regular network meetings with staff involved in niche services such as memory clinics and the Mental Health Liaison Service for older people. New Cross Hospital in Wolverhampton has been developing responsibility for services for dementia and other mental disorders. The aim is to encourage other general hospitals to follow this lead in the West Midlands. (RH). |
