JIP / QIPP Dementia Project

The Joint Improvement Partnership (JIP) and the NHS East Midlands QIPP (Quality, Innovation, Productivity and Prevention) developed a joint dementia workstream in 2010. The workstream focused on the following regional and national priorities:

• Memory assessment and early intervention
• Improving quality of care in acute hospitals
• Improving quality of care in care homes
• Reduction in use of anti-psychotic medication

Selected project briefs, a presentation describing the case for change and information to assist commissioners and providers in realising the benefits of the dementia strategy are below.
