Ms Watt says she is grateful to all who have contributed to the Scottish government's third dementia strategy which aims to put the person suffering with dementia at the centre of decisions about their ongoing care.
The mental health minister says it is not just about this strategy in isolation and improving the care of dementia sufferers is everyone's business.
She says carers will have a right to a carer's support plan to identify their needs.
Ms Watt says carers will be involved in dementia sufferers discharge plans and Carer's Allowance will be increased to the same level as Jobseeker's Allowance.

In February we reported the family of former Celtic manager and player Billy McNeill confirmed he had dementia.
Mr McNeill, who has been described as the club's "greatest ever captain", led the team which won the European Cup in 1967.
His family told a Sunday newspaper he was diagnosed with the illness seven years ago and is now unable to speak.
Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell said Mr McNeill was facing his situation with "true bravery".
Mental Health Minister Maureen Watt says she and Irene Oldfather previously shared stories on how their mother's dementia was progressing.
Ms Watt says it is clear that a rights based approach can make a fundamental difference to dementia sufferers and their carers.
The mental health minister says we have come a long way since 2009 including embracing the principle of personalised dementia care.
She says that work has been informed from listening to people with dementia, their families and staff.

Virtual reality used to help design buildings for people with dementia
A Scottish architect has helped pioneer a virtual reality guide to designing buildings for people living with dementia.
Charities say more than 90,000 people in Scotland currently have dementia.
It's hoped that allowing architects to "virtually" attain a dementia patient's point of view will mean more sympathetic designs. Aileen Clarke reports.
SNP MSP Sandra White says she knows from working with Irene Oldfather and Tommy Whitelaw that a lot of the campaigning comes from personal experience which says a lot of their integrity.
Ms White says her own mother had dementia and it is difficult for families to know what is going on and there must be more support in this.
The SNP MSP says she is proud of her own city, Glasgow, which aims to become a dementia friendly city.
In April the BBC reported that scientists hoped they had found a drug to stop all neurodegenerative brain diseases, including dementia.
In 2013, a UK Medical Research Council team stopped brain cells dying in an animal for the first time, creating headline news around the world.
But the compound used was unsuitable for people, as it caused organ damage.

Now two drugs have been found that should have the same protective effect on the brain and are already safely used in people.
"It's really exciting," said Prof Giovanna Mallucci, from the MRC Toxicology Unit in Leicester.
She wants to start human clinical trials on dementia patients soon and expects to know whether the drugs work within two to three years.

His wonder strike against Anderlecht is widely regarded as one of Dundee United's finest ever goals.

His family still strive to ensure their struggle was not in vain.

"We offer personalised support services, community activities, information and advice, at every stage of the dementia journey."

Ms Haughey says the care of someone with dementia should take into account the person's own personal circumstance.
The SNP MSP says dementia can affect people in their 60s, 50s and even 40s, therefore more people are being seen trying to juggle work with a dementia diagnosis.
She says employers are legally obliged to support people with dementia and the awareness should be raised amongst employers
