Through the efforts of the Dementia Care Committee at Hazel Hall Nursing Home, and its liaison with residents, representatives, and families and the multi-disciplinary team, the High Dependency Unit will be developed into a centre of excellence in person-centred dementia care, which will serve to improve the lived experience of the person living with a dementia in an environment where feelings matter most.
The High Dependency Unit has been extended and now provides residents with a bright and spacious new recreation and dining facilities which overlooks, and has access to, the multi-sensory garden.
Samantha Boylan has completed university-accredited training in Person-Centred Dementia Care with Dementia Care Matters in the UK to lead the development of true person-centred care within this area.
Designated staff are now in university-accredited training with Dementia Care Matters to further progress Samantha Boylan’s vision for our future in person-centred dementia care and all staff are completing training in the Dementia Care Matters Model of Person Centred Dementia Care.
