Providing Care to Get You There
The People Focused Group are committed, in partnership with RDaSH to deliver the new Pioneering Peer support programe 'Hospital to Home'. Your Peer led transition from Hospital, to the comfort and the safety of your Home.
This Pioneering programme has been put in place if you need support after you leave Hospital. Our Peer Support Co-ordinartors will discuss your requirements and the best way to achieve those outcomes.
The support we offer extends beyond your return home in fact we will be with you up to 12 weeks to help with your reablment. The after-care is providded to try to prevent your mental health from getting worse.
During your stay in Hospital the Peer Support Workers will connect you regularly for a 'getting to know you' visits. This will help with developing a better understanding of you and your requirements - enabling them to develop a working plan once you have returned home.
Our peer support workers can help with a wide range of tasks that are individual to you and your life. We know it can be daunting after a stay in hospital, especially an unplanned stay. Going home to face that mountain of letters, empty the fridge, make sure gas and electric is on and doing the first shop.
The list is sometimes so big that going home can seem like too much pressure. Our 'Hospital to Home' workers are there to support you step-by-step for up to 12 weeks.
The focus of this type of short-term is to help you:
When your 12 weeks support has ended never fear, as The Wellness Centre is just a phone call away. Peer support can improve individual's well-being, meaning they have fewer Hospital stays, larger support network, and better self-esteem, confidence and social skills. Peer Support is easy to access and we have lots of support networks available to you.
