First Steps

We believe an essential part of our care programme is the provision of information, patient assessment and on-going support to carers and families of those with Alzheimer's Disease and related disorders.

INFORMATION:
Information & advice sheets on Alzheimer's Disease are available on request.

ASSESSMENT:
Our Development Officer will assess the patients mental, physical and social skills. Immediate and future care options will then be discussed with our Consultant Psychiatrists.

FAMILY SUPPORT GROUP:
Family and friends are encouraged to share experiences and professional advice is available.

Consultant Psychiatrist and Activities Therapist are the group facilitators. Group meets one evening a month in our Care Centre. Even if you do not have someone in our Hospitals, you are welcome to come along to our meetings.
