dc.description.abstract | We investigated how carers of people with dementia evaluate their standing in their community and wider society and if this is was related to ‘living well’. We used baseline data from the Improving the experience of Dementia and Enhancing Active Life (IDEAL) programme and found that carers rated their standing in society higher than their local community. Higher evaluations of both were associated with enhanced life satisfaction, well-being, and quality of life. Initiatives that increase support or engagement in the community or wider society may help to increase carers’ perceptions of their social status enhancing their ability to ‘live well’. | en_GB |
