Quality developments in care of the cognitively impaired –‘people not patients’ Hello My Name is: Dr Tammy Angel Clinical Director of Elderly Care and Stroke
Dementia Dementia is a progressive and largely irreversible syndrome that is characterised by a widespread impairmentof mental function. Memory/ recall Complex motor tasks Recognition and reasoning Verbal communication
Dementia in hospital...F.A.I.R Screen and identify people T R A I N I N G Outreach for general wards Bluebell specialist care 25% of people in hospital have Dementia. 40% of people with hip fractures Appropriate discharge planning and signposting
Dementia Nurse Specialist Point of contact/support advice- patients/ relatives/staff Audit Screening Dementia specific care plans Satisfaction / feedback survey Dementia champions + link nurses Discharge information Training programme End of life care Outreach support
Other frailty units…Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Gateshead: Future Hospital Commission case study • Challenge: older people with both physical and mental health illness cared for on general wards by staff with limited expertise • Dual care ward increased focus on basic care and nutrition, by staff with specialist skills • Outcome: reduced falls, reduced need for IV fluids. Better care for this group of people • “staff.. see these people as ‘their kind of person’ and not people who should be moved somewhere else” … Right care for person is also most cost effective care for the ‘system’…
Improved quality of patient care Staff more knowledgeable to your needs Reduced risk of falls Good dementia care is just good care Better toiletting, and continence management Reduced stay in hospital Better fluid hydration Better nutrition
Bluebell ward.. He doesn’t like mornings so we leave him last, he prefers male carers; you have to speak slowly otherwise he won’t catch what you say – but if you take it slow – he is a pussycat. Oh and he will only eat porridge for breakfast and likes his tea really hot. He’s easy no bother at all! Tell me about Mr H Mrs M has had 10 children- amazing! Mrs L loves knitting and gardening Mr R was a world renowned author of American Military history. Mr D was a cinematographer. Mrs R has been feeling low since her dog died who was her companion since bereaved of her husband. Tell me Something personal about the people here
The problem with being confused... • We ‘wait’ for delirium to resolve in hospital • Just staying in hospital may be prolonging the condition ... long hospital stays • Whilst waiting run risk of infections, falls in unfamiliar environment + further confusion/distress • Limited options to date: physically able but not safe for discharge • Option to transfer to residential care. Also unfamiliar. • All above carry significant cost both for the individual and the health social care purse ... There is no place like home!
Delirium Recovery Programme.. multiprofessional collaboration with patient in centre
