There has been global neglect of service users' and carers' experiences of dementia care provision in rural areas. The present paper draws on a qualitative study of service provision for people with dementia and their carers in remote and rural Scotland. It draws on interviews with 15 people with dementia and 16 carers to explore their views about health and social dementia care service provision in rural Scotland. A further 14 carers of people with dementia participated in one of three focus groups. The paper discusses perceived gaps in services as well as positive aspects of dementia service provision which service users attribute to living in a rural area. The important issues this raises for the development of dementia care provision in rural areas are briefly discussed.
全球范围内都忽视了农村地区痴呆症患者及其护理人员在接受痴呆症护理服务方面的体验。本文基于对苏格兰偏远农村地区痴呆症患者及其护理人员的服务提供情况进行的定性研究。该研究通过对15名痴呆症患者和16名护理人员的访谈，来探讨他们对苏格兰农村地区痴呆症健康和社会护理服务提供的看法。另外14名痴呆症患者的护理人员参加了三个焦点小组中的一个。本文讨论了服务中存在的明显差距以及痴呆症患者认为居住在农村地区所带来的痴呆症服务提供的积极方面。并简要讨论了这对农村地区痴呆症护理服务发展所引发的重要问题。
