The minister said dementia had been "neglected for far too long".

She added: "And nowhere is this division between health and social care felt more sharply than by people living with dementia in their families, too often left to navigate a shattered system at the most difficult time in their lives."
她补充说："健康和社会关怀之间的这种划分没有比家庭中患有痴呆症的人更明显的了，他们常常在生活中最困难的时候离开一个破碎的系统。"

理查兹教授在2000年引入这些癌症目标时是国家癌症主任，他说他认为痴呆症患者的18周转诊治疗目标是可以实现的。
He said setting such a target would require "political initiative" and extra funding.

"All of that is going to cost more money but remember the toll that this condition is taking at the moment, both on the people affected by dementia themselves and their relatives," the professor said.
"所有这些都将花费更多的钱，但请记住这种情况目前正在造成的损失，无论是对受痴呆症影响的人自己还是他们的亲属，"教授说。
The same proposal has been made by Baroness Casey.
凯西男爵夫人也提出了同样的建议。
In a letter to former Health Secretary Wes Streeting in March, she said the government should look at "how dementia can be put on a level playing field with other conditions, for example by setting national standards for dementia diagnosis, including an 18‑week referral‑to‑treatment target".
在3月份给前卫生部长Wes Streeting的一封信中，她说政府应该研究"如何将痴呆症与其他条件放在一个公平的竞争环境中，例如通过制定痴呆症诊断的国家标准，包括18周的转诊治疗目标"。
Speaking to the BBC, Baroness Casey said she agreed with the proposal to emulate cancer care.
凯西男爵夫人在接受BBC采访时说，她同意模仿癌症护理的建议。
She said: "I think the National Health Service and more generally all of us have stuck our heads in the sand about it, and it's time we started saying, yes, we should have a similar mission, and we should do as much as we possibly can on dementia, and now."
她说："我认为国家卫生服务机构以及更普遍的我们所有人都对此感到困惑，现在是时候我们开始说，是的，我们应该有一个类似的使命，我们应该尽可能多地"
Baroness Casey is expected to publish her recommendations on social care reform next summer.
