Mearns Kirk Lunch & Social Club for People Living with Dementia Mrs Isobel Dawson. 22/19. 06.06.19 Mearns Kirk Lunch & Social Club for People Living with Dementia Helping Hands Charity 46646 We had two types of transportation this week and both were very comfortable and staffed by very friendly people who did everything they could to give us an enjoyable day. Irene and Mary were keen to get on board and they were closely followed by Elizabeth and Anne who took time to pose for the camera before taking to the water. Then Katie and Khalida who was keeping all of us in our place. They were followed by the bright- est smiles of the day from Moira and Margaret. News- Newsletter 22/19. Page 2 letter The organisers of the day must have been comparing notes as they both turned up in red jackets; all the better for us to pick them out in a crowd. Ian did a great job with the day and Mandy with the food. Elizabeth had a well-deserved day off from kitchen duties as there just wasn’t enough space for all of the kitchen cabinet to serve at once and Mandy had laid the tables in advance anyway. Newsletter 22/19. Page 3 Everyone came prepared for the rain but instead we got a glorious day with lots of sunshine which is evident in a few of the photos. The canal itself was looking lovely and was very quiet and peaceful. I told you we had sunshine and here are the pictures to offer as proof. Newsletter 22/19. Page 4 There were folk out on deck and others were content to sit inside and enjoy a quiet cuppa. We passed another barge and exchanged waves and even came upon a piper practising on the canal bank. But we had to go home. You can see more at https://mearnskirk.church/groups/lunch-club-for-people-living-with-dementia Newsletter 22/19. Page 5 NHSGGC Invitation to Person Centred Visiting workshops By next spring, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde wants to introduce further flexible choices around hospital visiting times. This will mean patients in hospital will have more choice about when the people who matter most to them can visit. We are calling this 'person centred visiting'. This is so inpatients in hospital wards can, wherever possible: • choose who visits and when • choose how they want those people to support them. We are holding a series of summer workshops to start to explore how we can best achieve this. If you have been an inpatient, or visited an inpatient in the last two years, we would like to invite you to attend one of these workshops. Person Centred Visiting Summer Workshops.

These related to: • Paediatric services at the Royal Alexandra Hospital; • Rehabilitation services at Lightburn Hospital; • Delivery Services in the Community Maternity Units; • Inpatient care at the Centre for Integrative Care. 2.2 Of these four areas of change, two are likely to have implications for Inverclyde residents, namely the move of paediatric services from the Royal Alexandra Hospital, and the changes to delivery services in the Community Maternity Unit at the Inverclyde Royal Hospital. 2.3 The latest NHS Board paper highlights that the proposal to move the Paediatric Inpatient Services in Ward 15 at the Royal Alexandra Hospital to the Royal Hospital for Sick Children had been agreed in 2012. Following engagement on the proposal, the preferred option was that the service should move, but this should be after the new Royal Hospital for Children opened on the new Queen Elizabeth University Hospital’s Campus. 2.4 Changes to the delivery services in the Community Maternity Units mean that Inverclyde women will continue to receive antenatal and postnatal care at the local hospital, but intrapartum services (i.e.

  • Our Letter to NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde
    National Office, Delta House, 50 West Nile Street, Glasgow, G1 2NP t: 0141 241 6308 f: 0141 221 2529 textphone: 0141 241 6316 Ms Catriona Renfrew Director of Planning and Policy NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde JB Russell House Gartnavel Royal Hospital Campus 08 December 2016 Glasgow G12 0XH Dear Catriona NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde – Changes to North East Glasgow Rehabilitation Services We refer to the proposal by NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde to reshape the delivery of rehabilitation services for older people in North East Glasgow. This would result in the transfer of inpatient services from Lightburn Hospital to Glasgow Royal Infirmary and Stobhill Hospital, and to local care home and community facilities in North East Glasgow. It is also proposed that the day hospital would transfer from Lightburn Hospital to form a combined service at Stobhill Hospital and outpatient clinics would move to Glasgow Royal Infirmary or Stobhill Hospital. We are advised that a number of local locations have been scoped for the Parkinson’s Support Group meeting and have been offered to patients and the group for consideration. Lightburn Hospital would close as a consequence of these proposed changes. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde consulted on proposed change to services at Lightburn Hospital in 2010. At the time, the proposal (to transfer inpatient services to Stobhill Hospital) was considered a major service change. The proposal was not approved by the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Wellbeing, who also gave recommendations for moving forward. We understand that the current proposal is different to that consulted on in 2010, but still entails the closure of Lightburn Hospital.

  • Information and Guidance on Visiting Hospitals for Faith and Belief Community
    Information and Guidance on Visiting Hospitals for Faith and Belief Community Representatives This leaflet has been prepared by the NHSGG&C Healthcare Chaplaincy Service in response to requests for information and guidance to assist representatives of faith communties when they are visiting members of their community who are in hospital. It is intended for use by those who are visiting patients in the course of their professional duties as representatives of a faith community (for example, Church of Scotland Parish Ministers, Rabbis, Imams.) For purposes of clarification, the phrase ‘faith community’ ought to be read as including churches, congregations, faith and belief groups. Spiritual and Religious Care is regarded by NHSGG&C as an intrinsic part of the holistic care provided to patients, and to those who care for them. To this end the NHSGG&C Chaplaincy Service delivers spiritual and religious care to all people, regardless of faith and belief. Healthcare Chaplains work with other NHS staff to ensure that these needs are met. Local faith community leaders have an important role to play in ensuring that patients who belong to their community have their particular religious needs met. Spiritual care addresses the fundamental human need to have a sense of peace, security and hope particularly in the context of injury, illness or loss and religious care can be a crucial aspect of this. 1 Patient Confidentiality The fact that a person is a patient in hospital is a confidential matter and must not be shared with another person without the consent of the patient. To this end, a Chaplain (or any other member of NHS staff) cannot confirm that a person is in hospital without their permission.
