It's very different from traditional day service provisions
Published on 01 February 2024 02:00 PM
The Sybil Levin Specialist Dementia Day Service is a SPECAL- informed day service, unique within Nottinghamshire; which uses an innovative approach which quite simply changes the lives of people with dementia. The word SPECAL is used to describe a unique dementia management method that can be learned and used by anyone involved in the care of a person with dementia. The SPECAL method is based on an innovative way of understanding dementia from the point of view of the person with the condition. This unique, person-centred approach underpins everything we do. The service is very different from traditional day service provision, and we witness immediate and sustained improved wellbeing from the moment the person arrives at the service
In this month’s Journal of Dementia Care from page 26 onwards you can read our CEO Di Trinder's independent evaluation of a change in approach for a day centre service.
