On 5 September, during a presentation of its 2019 World Alzheimer's Day campaign #EVOLUCIÓN at the headquarters of Spain's social services, Imserso, the Confederación Española de Alzheimer (CEAFA) urged the Spanish Government to approve the country’s National Alzheimer's Plan.
Some of the main points of the campaign are:
-
The importance of empowering people with dementia to be able to live with dignity;
-
Combatting isolation for carers and reinforcing carers’ rights;
-
Providing appropriate care for different types of dementia, respecting individual circumstances, and paying attention to the, thus far, unmet needs of people with young onset dementia;
