Consultation on the National Dementia Action Plan 2023-2033
The Alliance called for people living with young onset dementia to be fully represented in the Action Plan
People living with Young Onset Dementia
Young Onset Dementia is poorly recognised. People living with this condition require different responses to those of older poeple living with dementia.
For too long, residential aged care has remained the default option for people living with young onset dementia who can no longer live at home.
The submission calls for immediate government action to develop the age appropriate supports and services in the community these individuals require.
