Minutes:
The Panel received a report informing Members that In 2008, the Government published “Transforming the Quality of Dementia Care” a consultation document on a National Strategy for Dementia. The consultation period ran from 19 June 2008 to 11 September 2008 and Cheshire County Council submitted a response to the Department of Health in conjunction with CECPCT, West Cheshire PCT and Cheshire and Wirral Partnership Trust. The Government published its final report “Living Well with Dementia” on 3 February 2009, which had been amended in the light of feedback from the consultation.
RESOLVED
1. That Cabinet be recommended to
approve the steps being taken to implement the Strategy in Cheshire
East.
2. That an update report be brought back to a future meeting of the Committee or its successor.
