title: Nursing practice. The neglected careers.
abstract: The following is a shortened report of a study conducted by a community nurse working with dementia sufferers and their carers. It had been apparent to the researcher for some time that stress was becoming an additional burden for the carers. It was also suggested that the majority of carers were not taking advantage of the benefits and services which were available to help them.
