There is no specific data on people living with dementia who received these community-based care. However, we know that 27.84% of total older people in Indonesia received community-based care in Puskesmas in 2017 (Badan Pusat Statistik, 2017). In 2019, this figure grew up to 28.39% for men and 31.17% for women receiving community-based care from Puskesmas/Pustu.
