Congratulations to the dementia services in Harrogate and District which have been awarded the Yorkshire and Humber Dementia Quality Award, for the innovative approach that the local NHS has taken to make improvements for patients, their families and carers.
The Harrogate and Rural District Clinical Commissioning Group and Tees, Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust (TEWV) are working together to improve local detection, diagnosis and aftercare services for people with dementia, their families and carers. The award is in recognition of the way that the two organisations have worked with local GP practices to streamline the way patients with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia receive their routine reviews.
