✦ Synopsis

From the previous chapters it can be seen that there are at least three perspectives that can be taken: r that of society including its dominant modes of health and social care r that of the person with dementia r that of family carers of the person with dementia. These all act and interact to determine whether services are developed, funded, offered, requested and accepted. In this chapter we will consider the available evidence in each of these perspectives.
