Towards Dementia‐Friendly Communities; The Case of Baguio City
By implementing the action framework derived from this study, stakeholders can collaboratively work towards establishing a dementia-friendly community that prioritizes early detection, comprehensive care, and support while also promoting dementia prevention initiatives. Creating such an environment is critical for improving the well-being and quality of life for the growing elderly population in Baguio City, ultimately ensuring that individuals living with dementia are recognized, respected, and supported within their communities. Through collective effort and commitment, Baguio City can serve as a model for other areas striving to foster inclusivity and compassion for those affected by dementia.
