Day care for people with dementia.
CRITERIA
· Member must live in South Lakeland
· Referral by Social Worker (An informal approach may be made in the first instance or through a health visitor or community psychiatric nurse, but it will be necessary for a social worker to be involved.)
TRANSPORT
Unless the family prefers to make their own arrangements a taxi will pick up the member in the morning and return him/her in the afternoon
ASSESSMENT OF MEMBER
During the first six weeks of a new member attending our centre, we make an assessment of the needs of that member. This involves getting to know him/her, their likes and dislikes and tailoring our service to suit them, in consultation with their main carers.
Referrals: Via your Social Worker.
