摘要
y Delirium is associated with significant adverse outcomes, including prolonged length of hospital stay, increased dependency and increased mortality but there is a paucity of data pertaining to the management of delirium superimposed on dementia (DSD) in dementia specialist services. Here, the authors discuss their results from measuring the current practice in the management of DSD in a UK dementia specialist unit and an older adult community crisis and home treatment team service and the subsequent action plan formulated to improve patient care.
