Major health groups, including Rural NorthWest Health (RNH) and Grampians Health, are two key providers working across the region to help people live well with dementia, both at home and in residential care settings.
Their shared message is one of early diagnosis, practical support and community education.
RNH Wellbeing Coordinator Katrina Fallon said RNH provides dementia-related care to people living in the northern part of Yarriambiack Shire, while sharing services in the southern area with Dunmunkle Health Services.
