Support for Carers

The Trust values the importance of carers of people with dementia.  We acknowledge that carers know their loved ones best and should be listened to.  There is a carers pack which informs you of what to expect in the hospital signposting for support for carers and person with dementia.  Included in the pack are as follows:

• Communicating fact sheet
• Supporting carers, family and friends of people with dementia

There is a carers questionnaire included in the pack.  If you have had experience of the hospital and wish to complete a questionnaire please click here.

Staff from the hospital, WIRED and AGE UK are available every Thursday 2:00 - 3:00pm in the memory cafe situated outside ward 27 on the second floor of Arrowe Park Hospital.  

John's Campaign has been implemented on wards 21, 22, 27 and M2 Rehab for the right to stay with patients with dementia in hospital. See details in the document below.

Carer's of people with dementia are welcome on these wards. If you are a carer, we would like to work in partnership with you - see My Carer's Passport below for details.
