โœฆ Synopsis

The elderly population of the People's Republic of China is increasing rapidly. Yet few studies of dementia have been carried out outside the large cities. Prevalence rates are approaching those in the West. Inยฏuences on the system of care for demented old people include the growth of one-child families; decreasing levels of ยฎlial care; changing levels of residential care provision; a low level of specialist medical care and other welfare services; a low level of public awareness of dementia; and the weakening of the extended family, associated especially with urbanization and the increasing mobility of labour. These trends may create a dicult situation for dementia suerers and their carers.
