Dr Helen Findlay Diverse Alzheimers DrDr (😊)Wendy Mitchell One thing we write in the book is that it is so important to have the same GP as you get older/develop other care needs as your GP will also know that you have been consistent in your thoughts and feelings towards care or end of life treatment

anna wharton Diverse Alzheimers DrDr (😊)Wendy Mitchell This can be issue if person goes to live in nursing home as my mum did. She had same GP for 30 years but had to change as home in another area. He was okay, but even so, rather she'd kept original GP. Social Care Manager also stopped & never understood why
