Migrants with AD may be doubly isolated by culture and language and are less likely to access services, particularly in relation to mental health [92]. A person with AD tends to lose acquired languages first. Reliance on a first language poses significant difficulties when and if integration into mainstream care becomes necessary. Also, migrant groups may seek medical attention only once complications develop or when the disease is more advanced. For example, patients from non-English-speaking backgrounds attending a memory clinic in Australia were more severely demented and had increased rates of psychiatric disorders than comparison patients [93].
