Staffing Levels
The staffing is organised to give each individual ‘one-to-one’ quality time, thus ensuring that in addition to organised activities, the everyday ‘simple things’ are not overlooked, i.e., reminiscing, looking at photographs, discussing daily topics, reading newspapers together, tv news etc. Ad-hoc and impromptu activities, i.e. going out for a walk or to the local shop or just to sit in the garden.
To ensure continuity of care, at each shift changeover, comprehensive information is passed to the next shift and Daily Reports are readily available for reference.
