Our overall aim is to improve the diagnosis and management of Lewy body dementia. The programme will involve memory/dementia assessment services and movement disorder services from NHS Trusts in North East England and East Anglia. It consists of five interlinked work packages.
The programme has two main aims:
1. To improve the recognition and prompt diagnosis of LBD through the introduction of a simple assessment tool.
2. To improve patient management and outcomes through the development and introduction of an evidence-based toolkit for clinicians.
