Résumé
Australian guidelines for dementia cover 109 recommendations for dementia care. Knowing which recommendations to implement poses a challenge for general practitioners (GPs). This study aimed to gather general practice perspectives of priority recommendations for GPs in their practice. To explore which recommendations are most important and those requiring the greatest support in GP implementation, a Delphi study was conducted. Thirty-six GPs, 4 practice nurses and 1 medical services director completed two rounds of email questionnaires. Recommendations requiring support for GP implementation relate to early assessment of behavioural and psychological symptoms; mental health interventions tailored to the person's preferences and abilities; language and cultural barriers in access to information and services; and cognitive and learning needs in treatment delivery. It is critical to understand where support may be needed for GPs to successfully implement recommendations to improve care provided to people with dementia and their carers.
