younger carers, IPAD library, Dementia Carers Café. Ring Round. Take a Break. Carer5 Assessments.
Mental Health Support. Carers Resilience Workshops. Sound Baths and not forgetting our residential respite
weekend offering carers timeout, holislic therapies. meals and craft workshops. Carers accessed various
sessions including our gym session as well as the self-care café and support groups.
Carers Strategy Work
We have been involved in holding various forums with carers in the community and other organisations as the
local authority are creating an up-l¢>dale carers slralegy. We have enabled Garers lo influence services in
other ways loo, for example through our long-established working relationship with the local authority based
on the shared aim of giving carers Ihe recognition and support they need. The Director and senior managers
now regularly meet with unpaid carers to hear about their experiences.
Carers are on the Action Planning group and are involved in the prO￿S5. Carers have been instrumental in
looking at how some of these issues could be resolved, for example, they asked for a Carers Conference and
decided what they wanted to happen at this event.
Referrals
We continue to have had an increased referral rate from all sectors.
Stsff & Volunteers
Staff are working flexibly from both home and office based depending on Iheir daily workload. The team
continue to provide 7-days a week support for unpaid carers across the Island.
Our Servlces
Ring Round Support
Our volunteer Ring Round Support Team and Truslees have all taken extra referrals lo ensure more carers
feel fully supported. The service is manned by volunteers and overseen by a Trustee and the Manager.
Volunteers offer carers a regular supportive lelephone call to the carer and feedback lo the Team if a Carer is
struggling and needs more support. Volunteers have regular group supervision for feedback regarding their
cases.
Carers Lounge
The Carers Lounge offers a 2417 safe and welcoming space for unpaid carers to unwind. During core hours il
offers carers the chance to reflect on the emotional and physical impact of caring and receive some help to
negoliale the hospital journey from admission lo discharge. Carers are supported lo communicate with the
appropriate hospital staff, understand their righls, access practical support, identify training needs, engage
with other relevant agencies, and apply for specialised carer benefits as appropriate. The team works with
hospital colleagues to improve knowledge and understanding of the needs of carers to promote an inclusive
approach when planning for patients. They also provide ongoing support to carers from the point of discharge
whether the cared for is going home or to 8 short-term placement. They are now working with the integrated
discharge team lo ensure that carers are part of the decision-making process prior lo discharge where
possible. It has been and continues to be a difficult time as the Island is coping with a crisis in care in the
community which has meanl that there is a significant number of medically optimised patients awaiting
placement as Ihere are severe shortages of care packageslcare placements available.
Sevenacres Carers Lounge
Carers IW have an established base in Sevenacres to work with carers caring for someone with mental
illness. The aim of this service is to improve care outcomes and more cosl-effective service delivery. Their
presence in Sevenacres has already led to increased referrals from all three wards, the Home Treatment
Team, and carers themselves. We established a carers support group at the Carers Centre for Ihese carers
and are developing outreach to mental health carers in the community.
