| Annotation | The CNEOPSA - managing care needs for ethnic minority people suffering from Alzheimer's disease - project is a pilot project supported by the European Commission (DG V). The aim of this guide is to make a contribution within the individual countries considered as well as across Europe, by establishing the current level of progress in research, care developments, education and training in dementia and Alzheimer's disease as it concerns minority ethnic older people. The guide concentrates on three countries - the United Kingdom (UK), France and Denmark. Each country section comprises a country profile on the characteristics of the minority ethnic population, dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD) information, including costs; and research and information available. In addition, the experience of various groups providing care in each country are explored, including the family, professional carers, and minority ethnic organisations. The guide concludes with recommendations on how to improve care for minority ethnic older people with dementia. |
