PQ 695
695. Deputy Tom Fleming asked the Minister for Health if he will examine the situation of the under-supply of respite beds for those with dementia, as over 30,000 persons have dementia and there are 66 respite beds available across 54 specialist care units in nursing homes, which equates to just one respite bed for 450 persons with dementia; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
