Ease conditions for rising older population
It's time to prioritise dementia care; strategising to make life more comfortable for sufferers as cases rise in an aging population.
Those words from the Health and Social Care Minister - who's leading the way in identifying solutions to subsidise the cost to government.
Kate Beecroft is now in talks with UK not-for-profit organisation, Belong; looking to find land in the Isle of Man for a dementia village.
Belong has amassed over 20 years experience in the sector, with five other successful communities across the North West of England.
If it's to work alongside the DHSC; it would need to compete for the tender.
Mrs Beecroft says there's common sense behind the idea:
Call for renewed focus on equality and accessibility in government
MHK won't pursue removal of Bishop vote further if bill is rejected
New 'Interpreters on Wheels' rolled out at Noble's Hospital
Manx Aviation and Military Museum celebrating 25 years
