Abstract

People with dementia frequently develop behavioural and psychological symptoms, sometimes necessitating care in specialist dementia mental health wards. There has been little research on their life expectancy following admission or need for palliative care. The work presented here explores the mortality of these patients and whether this can be predicted at their time of admission to the ward.
