The care trajectory for people with learning disabilities and dementia is complex, starting with challenges in obtaining an appropriate diagnosis through to receiving appropriate and high-quality end of life care. The charity Dementia UK recognises the issues that families experience when someone in their family has a learning disability and dementia, and has developed a model of care in which Admiral Nurses, who are specialist dementia nurses, work in learning disability services. This article explores the role of the Admiral Nurse in learning disability services and examines the areas in which these specialist nurses provide tailored support. The article also outlines the expected outcomes of the service provided by these nurses. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
