People who work in health and social care frequently come into contact with people living with dementia, highlighting the need for a dementia aware and competent workforce. Some health and care services have implemented ‘Dementia Champions’ (DCs) to address this, but the role is rarely seen in domiciliary homecare services. We aim to conceptualise the DC role across health and social care to learn how it is implemented in practice and consider how it can be applied to homecare.
