Diagnosis is vital in getting people the support they need. To support recovery of the dementia diagnosis rates and implementation of the Dementia Care Pathway, NHS England has funded an evidence-based improvement project for two trusts in each region, 14 sites in total, to pilot tools to improve the diagnosis of dementia and the provision of support in care homes.<\/p>
The 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\u2019s guidelines, and to work closely with the third sector in their geographical area to offer appropriate services.<\/p>
To improve care for patients with dementia, NHS England's RightCare team is refreshing the RightCare Dementia Scenario and developing a dementia model pathway to provide a high-level view of what dementia care activity looks like for local areas. This will aid targeted support where appropriate.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4359", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Stephen Kinnock"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Aberafan Maesteg"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Stephen Kinnock"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2024-07-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2024-07-23T16:04:28.97Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2024-07-17", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Dementia: Health Services"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department plans to take to improve (a) the support, (b) provision of services and (c) health care plans for people with dementia in the next five years.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/5160", "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Suffolk Coastal"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jenny Riddell-Carpenter"} ], "uin" : "326"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1667951", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Work and Pensions"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1667951/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

In total the department has announced almost £5 billion for an ambitious, multi-year education recovery plan to support young people to catch up on education lost.<\/p>
The department has consistently prioritised children who attend specialist educational settings by providing additional uplifts both in the catch-up premium in the 2020/21 academic year and the recovery premium in the 2021/22 academic year, in recognition of the significantly higher per pupil costs they face. We are also providing £1 billion to extend the recovery premium funding for academic years 2022/23 and 2023/24. Alongside this, in Summer 2021, specialist educational settings were given an uplift to deliver summer schools, where they wanted to, at three times the normal rate.<\/p>
The school-led tutoring element of the National Tutoring Programme (NTP) also gives schools flexibility, enabling them to select those tutors most suitable to support pupils with SEND. On 31 March 2022, the department announced that we will allocate all tutoring funding through the NTP directly to schools next year, which will give them the freedom and flexibility to develop a tutoring offer that works best for their pupils.<\/p>
The 16-19 Tuition Fund also continues to support students with SEND as well as 19-24 year olds with an education, health and care (EHC) plan through the provision of one to one and small group tuition. To ensure 16 to 19 year old students with high needs, and those up to age 25 with an EHC plan can benefit, institutions have greater flexibility in how they deliver additional hours for these students.<\/p>
The Schools White Paper published on 28 March 2022 sets out our vision for a school system that helps every child to fulfil their potential, including SEND pupils. The Parent Pledge included in the White Paper will be an essential part of this, promising that any child who falls behind in English or maths will receive the right evidence-based targeted support, appropriate to their needs, to help them get back on track.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4423", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Will Quince"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Colchester"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Will Quince"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2022-05-16", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2022-05-16T12:18:09.88Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2022-05-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Special Educational Needs: Coronavirus"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps he is taking to help ensure that school pupils with SEND are receiving sufficient catch-up support to achieve their full potential following the covid-19 outbreak.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4471", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Rachael Maskell"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "York Central"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Rachael Maskell"} ], "uin" : "326"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1313480", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1313480/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Allocations are not calculated based on constituencies, rather by local authority area.<\/p>
The revenue funding figures shown below are for 2013-18. Before 2013-14, funding allocated by the Department through the Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG) was allocated to local authorities as a single amount intended to fund: school budget shares including academies; local authority central services for schools; additional support for high needs pupils; and provision for early years education. In 2013-14 the DSG was divided into funding blocks for each of these areas: a schools block; central services schools block; high needs block; and early years block. The schools block is allocated based on the number of pupils in schools within each local authority. The amounts allocated by York City Council from their schools block to primary and secondary schools for each year since 2013-14 to 2018-19 are shown in the following table:<\/p>

In these cases, patients would always be referred back to the prescriber for any decision about their treatment before any alternative is supplied.<\/p> Any protocol would however only be introduced if clinicians with expertise in the relevant area think it is appropriate. So, if an SSP for an immunosuppressant medicine was under consideration, this would be agreed with, for example, transplant specialists or other relevant clinicians.
