Comment: | The for dementia Admiral Nurse service supports carers of people with a dementing illness. The service is usually based within the NHS and is free to users. Admiral Nurses are qualified and experienced Registered Mental Nurses who have specialised in the field of dementia care. They provide advice and information about all aspects of dementia, availability and access to local services, management of behaviour, etc and are able to support carers through the transition of the person with dementia to residential or nursing home care and after death. This service is currently available in some parts of London, Kent and the North West.
