Abstract | [Extract] This paper contributes to the debate regarding the funding and provision of services for individuals living with dementia in RACFs from the perspective of a physiotherapist who is a researcher in gerontological studies and has nine years’ experience of working clinically with older individuals. It specifically considers the role of physiotherapists and the provision of exercise for individuals living with dementia in Australian RACFs, and how the ACFI influences this. Discrepancies are highlighted between best practice evidence, current clinical practice and funding. |
