The Kenya Mental Health Policy states that individuals, families, and communities will play a key role in promotion, prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of persons with mental disorders. They will also participate and advocate for community mental health programmes (Ministry of Health, 2015c). This community-based approach involves dementia care.
