Why is a diagnosis important?
www.england.nhs.uk
Patients and their Carers want it!
“It was a huge relief…right thank goodness now we’ve got a diagnosis, now I know what I’m dealing with and I’ll cope with it”
“It’s an illness, it’s a terminal illness as well you know, nobody gets better from it, and it isn’t treated like that with the NHS is it, unfortunately…if it was cancer it would be different, you know”
“Absolutely instead of being really really aggravated you become empathic on diagnosis”

Right to Know Campaign
• Imagine feeling ill but being told your new symptoms and behaviour were just a natural part of ageing. Imagine having a condition but no treatment, information, or support to help you manage it. Imagine if your doctor knew about your condition but chose not to tell you, as they thought nothing could be done to help.
• For many people with dementia, this is the reality. Denied a diagnosis, denied treatment, and denied the chance to plan for the future while still able to do so.
• At Alzheimer's Society we think this is wrong. We think everyone with dementia has a Right to Know. A Right to Know about their condition in order to tackle it head on. A Right to Know about the information and advice available to them. A right to be fully supported after their diagnosis. This is not a lot to ask, and only what people deserve.

Why is Dementia important to the CCG?

Why is it important for the NHS and LA
• We spend £23 Billion a year as a society and we can spend this money more effectively rather than on expensive crisis interventions
• Crisis presentations• Care Home Admission ( or delay them)• Reduce Emergency Admissions and readmissions to
Hospital• Reduce hospital Length of Stay• Spend the money saved on more meaningful support

What are the barriers to getting a diagnosis?
www.england.nhs.uk
GPs are one of the biggest barriers!
• NAO found that fewer than 2/3 of GPs felt it was important to actively look for early symptoms.
• GPs who completed the knowledge test had an average score of 47%
• GP attitudes to Dementia were contributing to the delays in diagnosis-there was an attitude of ‘what difference will it make’
• Only 31% felt they had enough knowledge to manage the disease.

Can we correlate DQT results and monthly diagnosis rates?
Caveats• Number added to register from DQT is taken directly from practice survey submissions and has not
been quality checked• Where practices resubmitted updated survey results, older results were deleted and therefore show
later in the project findings• DQT results would show in HSCIC data in the subsequent month to when activity took place
Overall figures can be correlated showing the DQT’s contribution to reducing the register to ambition gap between October-January. However it is clear there are many other initiatives on-going which are supporting the rise in diagnosis rates
