Hub Respite Provision
We provide Dementia Respite Provision and believe in delivering the best possible resources to families living with Dementia in Cambridgeshire. There is a real shortage of respite care in the local community, so the Dementia Respite Provision was developed as it was evident family carers were finding it difficult accessing respite and having the opportunity to have some down time and re-charge. To best facilitate our services, we operate a dedicated Dementia Respite Hub in Soham with provision for a wide range of games and activities in our well-equipped rooms. In addition, there is also a sensory/relaxation room well suited to people with Dementia who often have additional care needs. The Hub also has a garden which opens up outside opportunities to stimulate and help relax everyone. The Hub enables us to further meet demand and ensure that we continue to be open to everyone in the community. The Respite Provision is personal; engaging; stimulating and safe so that the family carer can feel confident their loved one is in a safe environment and will have a meaningful day. We ensure we keep a personal touch and provide person centred support. We bring in services to meet our support needs. The Respite Provision is supported by a fully qualified Psychotherapist who is also qualified to level 5 in Health & Social Care in addition to trained volunteers.
The Dementia Respite Provision also offers supported trips throughout the year, including Theatre trips, places of interest etc...
