Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Bioethics
  • Health Policy

Background:

  • Dementia prevalence is increasing in the European Union, requiring robust policy responses.
  • National Dementia Strategies are crucial for outlining dementia care priorities.
  • Ethical principles are vital for dementia policy, yet their application in EU strategies is under-researched.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically examine the ethical principles within European national dementia strategies.
  • To analyze the definitions, contexts, and emphasis of these ethical principles.
  • To identify commonalities and variations in ethical priorities across EU member states.

Main Methods:

  • Framework analysis was employed to systematically review 17 European national dementia strategies.
  • The analysis focused on identifying, defining, and contextualizing embedded ethical principles.
  • Emphasis was placed on noting variations in the interpretation and application of these principles.

Main Results:

  • A wide range of ethical principles are incorporated across EU national dementia strategies.
  • Significant variations exist in the interpretation and application of these ethical principles.
  • Common ethical themes were identified, but their specific implementation differs.

Conclusions:

  • While ethical principles are broadly acknowledged in EU dementia strategies, their practical implementation shows considerable diversity.
  • Further research is needed to understand the nuances of ethical principle interpretation in dementia policy.
  • Harmonizing ethical approaches in dementia care across the EU requires addressing these interpretational differences.
