We also acknowledge the work done by the working group of the United Kingdom Royal College of Nurses who developed the document “A Pathway for the Management of Pain in Motor Neurone Disease,” which is now out of print, but has been incorporated and updated within this booklet. We also wish to draw attention to the excellent resources provided by MND Australia at www.mndcare.net.au for both professionals and those living with the condition, which are referenced within this booklet.. A Message to the Primary Carer When a member of the family is diagnosed with MND, it can be an overwhelming time. It is therefore necessary that a family member, a relative or a friend understands the prognosis of MND and who to contact for advice and support during this time of great distress. It is hoped that this booklet will provide you with a fuller understanding of MND and offer you guidance and support to help with decision making. As soon as a diagnosis is confirmed, families should be put in contact with a member of the MND Scotland Care Team by their Neurologist. The care team is there to identify and source additional support as required for the particular stage of the disease. The course of MND is variable, so the symptoms experienced and the order in which they appear will vary from individual to individual and not everyone affected will necessarily experience all of the possible symptoms. You are not alone; although most health care professionals will have little to do after their initial visit early in the disease, they will, however, come to your aid as things change and more input is required – even if they haven’t been in touch for several months. All it takes is a phone call from you advising them of how things have changed. Taking care of your own health and wellbeing is rarely a primary carer’s priority and, therefore, the carer’s own health is often not given the attention it deserves. However, it is imperative that family carers monitor their own health with the supervision of their GP and think about compassionate leave or a change to working hours if the health of the primary carer is at risk or might become an issue. Please ensure that this document is made known to the various care professionals who are involved with you and your family so they can order a copy for themselves from MND Scotland.

An integrated care pathway (ICP) is a description of a person’s anticipated care needs that should be addressed by the multidisciplinary team. It summarises an overview of disease progression under different headings and identifies potential problems that might arise for the client and carer as the illness advances. It also offers a list of resources which should be accessed as required to support clients with MND at different stages of the disease. In most cases access to these specialist services or the suggested resources will require referral from a member of the multidisciplinary team. This anticipatory approach to addressing care needs can benefit clients and families by helping members of the multidisciplinary team identify solutions to potential needs before they arise. Why have an Integrated Care Pathway for MND? The goal of an ICP is to promote and support the development of care partnerships and to provide information to empower clients and their carers. Due to the relatively small number of people affected by MND, only a few staff within the NHS or social work departments will have the necessary training and experience to develop a high level of expertise in the management of this disease. This integrated care pathway has been developed to assist carers in understanding the disease process of MND from diagnosis to end of life and to suggest appropriate resources and interventions for different stages of the condition. Who is the Target Audience for the Integrated Care Pathway? The ICP is intended to empower both professional and non-professional care providers. Experience of other care plans, for example the Champlain Care Plan developed in Ontario, Canada, on which this ICP draws heavily, has demonstrated, that both people with MND and their families can benefit from an ICP like this.

    Making connections Evaluation Report on the Suttie Arts Space 2014 -2016 Basia McDougall BH McDougall CPsychol. AFBPSs, FHEA MPhil. MSc. Occ. Psych. BSc.(Hons) Chartered Psychologist Independent Research Evaluator Acknowledgments I would like to acknowledge the help and co-operation of all those who took the time to meet with me or discuss with me, by telephone or e-mail, issues relevant to this evaluation. Their honest thoughts, comments and pointers to contacts and further sources of information have been invaluable in shaping the content of this report. Thank you to: The Paul Hamlyn Foundation, who provided funding for this evaluation project (July 2016) Creative Scotland and Aberdeen City Council who supported the programme of commissioned exhibitions PAGE 2 Executive Summary Introduction GHAT commissioned an evaluation study of The Suttie Arts Space and requested that stories of venue use should form the central focus of the evaluation. The evaluation plan assumed three areas of broad interest: a. venue use b. perceptions of venue and c. perceptions of art exhibited within the venue. Method The primary research tool was the narrative interview. Twelve participants were self-selected and represented three groups: stakeholders, artists and visitors (inpatient and outpatient). In-depth narrative interviews were conducted, transcribed and analysed. Additional sources of evidence, gathered over the 10 months, supplemented the findings of interviews. These sources included over 250 invigilator entries and visitor comment sheets. In addition, email correspondence took place with those who chose not to be interviewed but wanted to share their views. Finally, attendance at monthly GHAT meetings, alongside regular visits by the researcher to The Suttie Arts Space, ensured context for the findings.

  • COVID-19 Staff Brief
    can Here is the brief for Wednesday 16 December 2020. COVID-19 vaccine update • If you have applied online or through the phone booking number, please be reassured that you will be on the waiting list for an appointment. Over 6,000 staff across Grampian have already applied for the vaccine. Organising these clinics to match with vaccine supply and vaccinators is extremely challenging. The clinics in ARI & the 3 H&SCPs are now up and running. If you have not heard from the booking team, please don't worry - we will get to you. Many areas are also running Peer-Peer sessions, over 600 vaccinations were given to staff yesterday, an amazing achievement! Thank you for your patience. • If you are at all unwell, please do not attend work, even if you have a vaccine appointment scheduled. Peer and clinic vaccinators have the authorisation to make a clinical judgement and will not immunise staff members if they are unfit to receive the jab. Please respect this decision. In the event of anyone becoming unwell immediately after receiving their immunisation, staff should contact 2222 and follow the usual process. Extension of asymptomatic staff testing As highlighted in Monday’s brief, we will shortly be extending the asymptomatic staff testing programme, using Lateral Flow Devices. This will be rolled out in a phased manner, as follows: • Patient facing staff who are already receiving PCR tests (oncology, Medicine for the Elderly long stay, MH&LD long stay). NOTE this will NOT replace the PCR test but is in addition to it. • Out-patient patient facing staff • Dr Gray’s Hospital patient facing staff Over the next few days we will advise patient facing staff (in the above groups) how to pre-populate their details on a web-form.
