Our users come from all parts of the borough and many have multiple and significant needs, including dementia and learning disabllilies, as well a5 physical SmpaSrments. Raleigh House caters for very frall people who need personal care; The Bradbury Centre is geared towards those who are ae to look after theSr own personal care. However, both serylces are 'universal' In thot they are open to all older people who Ilve In the t)orough.

The people we supp)rt are frailer and their needs are more complex than ever before. cl Study 'Dlana' was referred to Staywell by her GP In 2021. Havlng prevlously been a very Independent and capable person, she had suffered an almost immediate change in her capabilltles following the death of her husband In 2018. Over the course of slx rnonths her memory declined 5ubstanllally and w4thin a year she requlred a great deal of support from her son and daughter"in.law. She suffered wlth depresslon, memory iswes and frequent episode5 of crylng, At this time she was prescrlbg medicauon for anxlety and attended a local day centre on an ad hoc bosi5. Diana's attendance was patchy - she would often fo¥get to go and wèsnl enthusiastlc about it. When Covid hit in 2020 thi5 day centre cLosed. The impact of Covld lockdown on Dlana was great,. she decllned rad d¥lte bang in a 5UPPQrtNe bubble with her 9)n and daughter-in-law and her dlabetes splralled out of control. Diana started to attend Ralelgh House once a week when the centre ropened after Covid restrfctlons We eased. Her daughter-ln-law accompanied her at first as Diana dldn't know any other aLten(*es and was a littk nervou5 to leave the house. Her diabetes was 5ts'11 an Issue and her daughter-ln-law fdt that Increa9ng Diana's attendan would ensure that she was eatlng more appropriate diet and tsking her medlcalion. It would also Increase her wal contact and mental sumulatlon, which might help slow the symptoms of her demenb'a. Regull3r OprtUnf(ieS to be moblle would also prolong her physlcal independence. It meant a lot to Diana's family that she would be able to remain Ilving In her own home for as long as posslble. Since then. Dlana's attendan at RaleSgh ha5 gradually incieased, and she comE5 fwe days a week. She also took up dally vlsits from our Help@Home servlce, helping her to wepare meals and encDuragSng her to get ready for bed and sdett her dothe5 for the followlng nN)rning.
