Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Wright (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 24 October 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Dementia Sufferers.


Dementia Sufferers

For the purposes of clarity, I certainly do not criticise all uses of neuroleptic drugs. My point concerns the nature of the care that is delivered in a particular care home and whether that care home is registered as suitable for dementia patients. I certainly know of people with mild dementia being well looked after in settings that have not been formally ascribed the status of being suitable for dementia patients, so we must be careful not to be overly dogmatic on that point.
