SURVEY: Caring for someone with dementia?

With our ageing population, dementia is becoming an increasingly significant issue in the workplace as more and more people are combining work and caring for older, sick or disabled parents and other loved ones.

Dementia is a growing challenge not just for public services but also for families and employers. Employers for Carers and Carers UK are conducting this piece of research to improve our understanding of:

• The key issues and support needs for employees combining work and caring for someone with dementia.
• Practical ways in which employers and other parties can help.
• Pressures which can cause people to leave work to care and how these can be addressed.

This is a short survey that can be completed in about 10 minutes. Carers UK is also conducting wider research into the impact of caring but this survey focusses specifically on people who are (or have recently been) both working and caring for someone with dementia.
