    Author: Höft B, Sadeghi-Seragi A, List M, Supprian T.
    Journal: Psychiatr Prax; 2011 May; 38(4):198-200. PubMed ID: 21412702.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: Patients with dementia and anosognosia were to be integrated into a dementia-network. METHODS: Home visits were performed during a period of two years. Socio-demographic variables, degree of severity of dementia and recommended measures were documented and evaluated. RESULTS: Treatment by a general practitioner was reestablished in many cases. CONCLUSIONS: Home visits with psychogeriatric competence facilitate the integration into individual dementia-specific medical support.
