[Formal and informal support of patients with dementia at home: A mixed methods study within the Actifcare project].

CONCLUSION: People with dementia and their informal caregivers should be informed about formal care services and involved in decision-making processes as early as possible. To this purpose, account must be taken of the various informal social networks. This could improve the use of formal care services and the further development of these offers and thus prolong care at home. PMID: 30477972 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
