Majority of the Dutch Primary Dementia Care Networks Do Not Include Allied Health Professionals.
Background: Allied health professionals can contribute to better quality of life of people with dementia. However, it is unclear whether DementiaNet networks effectively integrate their expertise. We aim to describe the extent of allied health involvement in DementiaNet networks.
Methods: Between 2015 and 2021, 35 currently active primary care networks were formed. During this period, logs of the network's composition were kept and used to describe allied health involvement.
Results: Ten networks included at least one allied health professional at the start of the project, which increased to 17 networks at follow-up. Networks with allied health professionals were larger than average and predominantly situated in (sub)urban areas.
Conclusion: Less than half of the DementiaNet networks included allied health professionals at follow-up. The reasons for this are unknown. Therefore, exploration of barriers and facilitators for allied health involvement is necessary to engage allied health professionals and improve interprofessional collaboration.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare (JMDH) aims to represent and publish research in healthcare areas delivered by practitioners of different disciplines. This includes studies and reviews conducted by multidisciplinary teams as well as research which evaluates or reports the results or conduct of such teams or healthcare processes in general. The journal covers a very wide range of areas and we welcome submissions from practitioners at all levels and from all over the world. Good healthcare is not bounded by person, place or time and the journal aims to reflect this. The JMDH is published as an open-access journal to allow this wide range of practical, patient relevant research to be immediately available to practitioners who can access and use it immediately upon publication.
