This week Megan O'Hare interviews Emma Harding and Emilie Brotherhood, PhD students working on the Rare Dementia Support Impact study - a £3.5 million, five-year, multi-site collaboration research study into the value of multicomponent support groups for people living with or supporting someone with a rare form of dementia. They will discuss the 5 work packages involved but also the translation of all their work into other forms of dementia and the potential impact this could have on policy, particularly around financial support. More information on Rare Dementias and support can be found at http://www.raredementiasupport.org/ You can find out more about our panellists, and their work on our website www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk.

Quality of Life After a Dementia Diagnosis
November 4, 2019
•36m
This week's podcast was recorded at the Centre for Dementia Studies at the University of Sussex. Megan O'Hare is joined by Dr Ben Hicks and Dr Laura Hughes to discuss broadly the themes of inequalities in dementia care and quality of life and specifically look at the DeterMIND programme. Evidence has emerged of major inequalities in care for dementia, driven by factors including ethnicity, whether your care is self-funded or paid for by local authorities and whether you are diagnosed earlier or later. DeterMIND is designed to address critical, fundamental and as yet unanswered questions about inequalities, outcomes and costs following diagnosis with dementia. These answers are needed to improve the quality of care and therefore the quality of life. Join the podcast to hear an interesting discussion on the benefits and perceived downsides of an early diagnosis, results from Ben's PhD work on how different populations manage a clinical diagnosis and the way care homes can enhance the quality of life for people with dementia. You can find out more about our panellists, and their work on our website www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk. A transcript of this podcast is also available on our website at https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/podcast-quality-of-life-after-a-dementia-diagnosis/ Like what you hear?
