In recent years, nurses have experienced increased workplace pressures in part due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which exacerbated challenges in the delivery of person-centred dementia care. This article examines how people with dementia were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as exploring the ongoing effects on nurses and the care they provide for people with dementia. The author discusses the importance of dementia awareness and education for nurses that supports them to promote the needs of people with the condition. The article also outlines how nurse leaders can promote person-centred care for people with dementia through reflection and clinical supervision.
