Chief Executive Officer for West Suffolk Hospital, Professor Dr Steve Dunn visited us at Melford Court in April. This was Steve’s first visit to Melford Court where he met with the management team to discuss the current partnership working with the home and West Suffolk Hospital. Melford Court has recently been asked to pilot the ‘red bag initiative’ to help create a smoother hospital admission and discharge for care home patients. Steve said he was very impressed by the turnaround of the home and looks forward to continued partnership working and building positive relationships with the team at Melford Court in the future.
The Comforting Magic of Animals in Dementia Care
At Stow Healthcare, we see every day how meaningful connection, familiar routines and moments of comfort can make a real difference to those living with dementia. One beautiful example of this is the special bond many of our residents share with animals. Across our homes, animals play a much-loved role in daily life.
