There is not yet a regulation or mechanism from the government for this. We have learnt informally that ALZI is testing a new program called ‘Care Navigator’ which provides online support to family carers by referring them to relevant services, connecting them to experts who can help them address problems they are facing at home, such as behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), combined with education sessions on dementia care skills.
