AnnotationA memory aid group was run for people with memory difficulties and their carers in a local health centre. It aimed to develop coping strategies that carers and clients felt they could put into practice in their own homes. While the numbers in the initial study were small, the group outcome suggested that providing a more localised service, linking mental health specialists and local nursing practitioners had advantages.
