Greater Manchester’s Dementia Care Pathway
QUALITY STANDARDS
People who drive are informed of the necessity to report the diagnosis to the DVLA and are provided with information on alternatives if they are advised to stop driving.
If you drive, you will need to make the DVLA aware of your dementia diagnosis. They will assess whether you can continue driving. (Those diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment do not need to inform the DVLA.)
At some point you may no longer be able to drive. Your dementia advisor will be able to inform you about alternatives to driving.

People with dementia and their carers are helped to access financial advice and support to claim any financial help they are entitled to.
Being diagnosed with dementia or becoming a carer for somebody living with dementia may come with a financial cost, such as loss of income. There are sources of financial helps available to you, depending on your circumstances. Managing your finances differently may also help with any costs.
You will be provided with information about the financial help available to you and supported to claim that help, if needed. You should also be signposted to independent financial advice to help you manage your finances.
