Spread of dementia-specific inpatient care services for people with dementia	Nationwide
Expert notes regarding outpatient and inpatient care	There are several nationally available opportunities to access dementia-specific care and support, both in the state, community, and private sectors.
Expert conclusion regarding dementia-specific care structures	Care services are suitable for adequate care for people with dementia and informational services for people with dementia and their family members are available nationwide. However, people with dementia and their relatives rarely participate in the development of care services. Although there are associations of relatives that try to influence dementia care, there are large regional differences.
Existing models of good practise	1. Different websites with information about dementia, care, and research, 2. specialised services such as dementia nurses and family support, 3. a register for people with behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) that helps staff and relatives to identify different needs or symptoms in patients
