Abstract

This research highlights persistent inequalities among people with dementia from ethnic minority groups. More research is needed to address these issues and fully understand the factors influencing access to care services and attitudes towards medications among people with dementia. Policymakers and researchers should emphasise the importance of designing and implementing culturally tailored interventions to reduce these persistent inequalities.
