Lovely example in our latest @online_his podcast from one of our #dementia in hospital teams in @NHSGrampian supporting person centred care and meaningful activity for people with dementia, leading to reduction in falls.
Giving patients and their families opportunities to share their experiences and wishes, helps improve safety and care. Our latest podcast discusses the importance of the patient voice. Listen on Spotify or Podbean: healthcareimprovement.podbea… #WorldPatientSafetyDay

Thanks to everyone involved. It was wonderful to hear the positive impact person-centred care planning has had for patients, carers and staff. Inspirational is often over-used, but to have undertaken quality improvement in hospital settings through the pandemic is just that.
Thanks to all teams who attended the final learning session for #Focusonhospitals yesterday. Great to hear so many examples of teams improving person-centred care planning to reduce stress and distress for people with #dementia in hospital settings @stephenlithgow @AlzScotDNC

Thank you so much to all who donated for my firewalk for @ScotFamADrugs. I have a few blisters, but it was worth it to raise money in memory of my fearless boy, Ryan, who I know would have approved of his feartie mum! You can still donate at the link below justgiving.com/Marie-Innes

Great work and a great blog by @hewitt_ot
"Many of the patients found themselves singing along to the music. Seeing their favourite singers/bands on screen also had a positive effect." @hewitt_ot shares her experience of using music videos on an acute dementia ward with @alzscot: bit.ly/3Xl8Ski
