Article Synopsis
- * The paper presents a case study from North Macedonia where healthcare professionals sought help from uninvolved adult daughters to relieve an overburdened family caregiver, grappling with whether this was appropriate or excessive pressure.
- * The analysis concludes that the ethical conflict arises primarily from the state's failure to provide formal care services, suggesting that the healthcare professionals' actions were less ethically questionable than the lack of support from the government.
Introduction: The increasing number of people living with dementia and its burden on families and systems particularly in low- and middle-income countries require comprehensive and efficient post-diagnostic management. This study aimed to explore the acceptability and efficacy of a multi-professional case management and psychoeducation model (North Macedonia Interprofessional Dementia Care, or NOMAD) delivered by mobile teams for people with dementia and their caregivers in North Macedonia.
Method: We conducted a two-arm randomized controlled trial comparing the intervention with treatment as usual.
Background: Increasing healthcare costs need to be contained in order to maintain equality of access to care for all EU citizens. A cross-disciplinary consortium of experts was supported by the EU FP7 research programme, to produce a roadmap on cost containment, while maintaining or improving the quality of healthcare. The roadmap comprises two drivers: person-centred care and health promotion; five critical enablers also need to be addressed: information technology, quality measures, infrastructure, incentive systems, and contracting strategies.
