My husband was diagnosed Vascular Dementia approx. a year ago - he has never been prescribed any medication. I was told that a Post Diagnosis Link Worker would visit on a regular basis (probably monthly) for one year. A month later we had first visit and her first words were, this is the first and last time you will see me as I have handed in my notice - going to work in Glasgow. We are North Scotland. The job would not be advertised until she had actually left. I phoned last week to ask if anyone is in post yet - oh yes, but she has all the training courses to do. I guess we'll never see her as the year will be up in the next week or two.
I got the impression that it would have been very helpful.
