Guidance in ‘NHS England Dementia: Good Personalised Care and Support Planning Information for primary care providers and commissioners’ indicates that care planning and reviews should always be completed with the person living with dementia and their family/carers as appropriate, to reflect the persons wishes and needs. The guide was developed with a range of people living with dementia and their carers.
