Reviewing the Dementia Manager Reports This section explains the different Dementia reports and points out the areas you may want to consider when reviewing the results. The reports are grouped into categories making it easier to quickly identify specific cohorts of patients. Dementia Manager - Reports 9

10 Dementia Manager - The Dementia Manager category listed at the top contains a suite of reports that identify patients who are at risk of dementia and whether they have a carer recorded or not. See Dementia Manager Reports (page 10). Dementia Manager Admin Urgent - The Dementia Admin Urgent reports can be delegated to non-clinical staff who can recall patients who may need a follow up. See Dementia Manager Admin Urgent (page 11). Dementia Manager Practice Monitoring - Reports listed in this section are to assist in the submission and monitoring of your DES payments. See Dementia Manager Practice Monitoring Reports (page 12). After identifying the patients you can quickly check a patient's record or invite the patient to attend for a review from Practice Reports - See Interacting with Patient Lists (page 13). Dementia Manager Reports The Dementia Manager category listed at the top of the reports is designed to assist in identifying patients at risk of dementia and is the starting point for the Dementia DES. Note - Some report lines only display if you have patients who meet the relevant criteria. Key Points Dementia Manager Reports Dementia Manager Reports - The Dementia Reports look at your practice population for patients with the following risk factors then group those risk factors into low, medium or high risk of dementia. Patients aged over 60 with one of the following conditions CVD, PAD, CVA, Diabetes, COPD or Chronic Neurological conditions. Patients aged over 60 with a QRisk score more than 20% Patients aged over 40 with Trisomy 21 (Down's Syndrome) Patients aged over 50 with Learning Difficulties Lower (1-3) Dementia Risk Factor Count - The lower risk category looks at patients who are classified as low risk with one to three risk factors. 10

11 Medium (4-6) Dementia Risk Factor Count - The medium risk group looks at patients who have four to six risk factors. High (7-9) Dementia Risk Factor Count - Those patients in the high risk group have seven to nine risk factors. Note - The reports are split into patients with and without a carer to assist in supporting patients at risk of dementia as well as those caring for them. Also, having a carer is a risk factor for having dementia, which may help you target a more specific group from which to identify cases. To open a patient's record or review the patient's risk factors - See Working with Patient Lists (page 13). Dementia Manager Admin Urgent The reports listed under the Admin Urgent category help identify patients who require a follow-up. Dementia Manager - Admin Urgent 11
