"I felt I had enough time and support"

About: Dementia and Older Persons Mental Health / Camel Memory Assessment Team

(as a staff member posting for a patient/service user),

I went last year and then had a follow-up review. I attended the clinic and was then diagnosed with dementia after the assessment. I felt I had enough time and support to answer the questions, but I was unable to respond to all of them. I was surprised because I had only been there 12 months before. It has been quite a shock, and I am just coming to terms with this. I have started some medication, which they have increased, and I am now waiting for further correspondence following the appointment.
