Saitama Prefectural Kuki Library has created a link collection that allows users to view 'Dementia Care Paths' created by various municipalities within the prefecture, now available on the 'Dementia Information Corner' page of the prefectural library website. A 'Dementia Care Path' is a summary created by each municipality detailing 'when,' 'where,' and 'what kind' of medical and nursing care services are available for people with dementia and their families. This collection makes it easier for patients, families, healthcare professionals, and regional welfare workers to access necessary information. As a specialized library for health and medical information, Kuki Library maintains a 'Dementia Information Corner' stocked with books, DVDs, and pamphlets, and provides guidance on how to search for health and medical information on its website.
