The document discusses efforts to improve care for dementia patients in acute hospital settings in line with the 8th pillar of the national dementia action plan. It describes how allied health professionals were tasked with working with families and carers as equal partners. An investigation of current practices found opportunities to better utilize "Getting to Know Me" forms to learn more about individual patients' needs, behaviors, and preferences from a family perspective. A pilot program was implemented to improve the use of these forms and enhance the personalized care experience for both patients and their carers. The viewpoints shared by one carer emphasize the importance of understanding unique details about the individual patient to truly know how to meet their needs.
