台灣正進入超高齡化社會,失智症患者人數逐年攀升,各縣市間的診斷與照顧資源分配不均,引發相關協會關注。
台灣面臨超高齡化威脅,失智人口也逐年增加,台灣失智症協會擔憂,目前各縣市的失智症診斷跟照顧資源有明顯落差。對此衛福部長石崇良表示,雖各縣市的失智症照顧資源與推動進程、高齡化程度有所差異,衛福部會透過行動方案的4大方向與跨部會合作,共同推動失智症患者相關措施。
台灣失智症協會指出,各縣市面臨的失智症人口規模與診斷照護服務比率存在明顯差異,診斷照護服務比率相對較低的地區,則應進一步檢視早期辨識、就醫引導、服務可近性、資源量能及家庭實際使用經驗,找出服務落差並提出改善措施。
石崇良表示,衛福部自2026年起推動「失智症防治照護政策綱領暨行動方案3.0」,包括精準診斷與治療、日常照顧、預防與失智者權益保障等4個方向,另也提出2035年達成「失智友善台灣888」的目標,包括失智精準診斷率、失智服務涵蓋率,以及特定機關或場域人員的失智識能率皆達8成。
對於精準診斷與治療,石崇良指出,失智症治療藥物開發是未來趨勢,但過去失智症大多仰賴臨床症狀判斷,對於病因的診斷沒那麼精確,未來希望透過精準診斷配合精準治療,再加上相應的給付方案,幫助患者控制病情。
石崇良也提到,政府已擴大對於失智症患者的照顧,長照3.0已將年輕失智症患者納入服務對象,並依據分級提供所需的協助,未來也會持續擴大團體家屋、小規模多機能服務(小規機)等量能。
此外,石崇良說,衛福部未來也會透過健康幣等政策推動「社會處方」,並結合運動部、文化部、教育部等政策,預防或延緩失智症進程,另也透過跨部會合作保障失智者權益,提供失智症患者全面性的保障。
