<p>Provision of dementia health care services is the responsibility of local integrated
care boards (ICBs). NHS England would expect ICBs to commission services based on
local population needs, taking account of the National Institute for Health and Care
Excellence guidelines.</p><p> </p><p>The Dementia Well Pathway includes diagnosing
well, living/ supporting well and dying well, and highlights that services need to
be integrated, commissioned, monitored, and aligned with NICE standards for each component
of the pathway. It makes it clear that the needs, wishes and preferences of each individual,
including those of working age, should be taken into account in planning and providing
their care.</p>
