I very impressed by the professional nurse visits. I did not know what to expect from a mental health/memory team assessment.
It was a very positive experience. Both nurses on different occasions were very patient and kind and it did not feel like I was being tested. I was pleased to have facts about the brain and dementia explained in a way I could understand.
A couple of the facts have got a bit scrambled but that could have been me not being clear enough.
However the wait from my referral and first phone call to seeing someone was about 4/5 months which isn't really good enough.
