ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To assess the attitude of medical care for dementia among the primary care physicians (PCP) in two different areas in Hyogo Prefecture and compare it.METHODS:
A 15-item questionnaire related medical care for dementia was developed and sent it by mail to the PCP in December, 2011.RESULTS:
One area is an urban area and the other is a rural area. The response rates were 42.9% and 36.7%, respectively. The rate of the PCP in the urban area who was interested to care dementia elderly was higher, compared to the rural area. The integrated medical care net work was well functioning in the urban area. The rate of PCP in the urban area who wanted to have training for dementia care was higher than in the rural area.CONCLUSIONS:
Although the rate of elderly in the population in the rural area is higher, the PCP in the rural area seemed not to be interested in dementia care.
