<p>We remain committed to delivering the Challenge on Dementia 2020 in full to make
England the best country in the world for dementia care.</p><p>The National Audit
of Dementia Care in General Hospitals 2018–2019 published in July 2019 and undertaken
on behalf of NHS England and NHS Improvement and the Welsh Government, shows that
improvements have continued in the care of people with dementia in hospitals across
England and Wales since the previous audit of 2017. For example, 96% of hospitals
in England and Wales now have a system in place for more flexible family visiting
and a large number (88%) of carers (and/or patients) receive a copy of the discharge
plan.</p><p>The report is available at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://www.rcpsych.ac.uk/docs/default-source/improving-care/ccqi/national-clinical-audits/national-audit-of-dementia/r4-resources/national-audit-of-dementia-round-4-report-online.pdf?sfvrsn=f75c5b75_6"
