This study wished to assess whether patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and FMS prescribed memantine have improved pain control to those patients not receiving memantine.
The Extensive Care service aims to greatly improve care for people who often need it the most by providing one comprehensive service for all of their needs in order to reduce their risk of hospitalisation.
This means all the doctors, nurses, care co-ordinators and other professionals which their needs require are in the same place, working together, to provide the necessary support to keep them well for longer and out of hospital.
The service is aimed at people aged 60 and above who have two or more long-term conditions, such as diabetes or chronic heart problems. People in this category can often find themselves seeing the doctor regularly about a number of different conditions and can feel confused, frustrated and uneasy about where to go for medical help.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of a tool, Congredi, for electronic communication by professionals for the care of home-dwelling elderly patients.
The team – based centrally in one location at Leechmere, Grangetown – aims to support adults who live in Sunderland, who are registered with a Sunderland GP and need short term health and or social care support, that can help to keep them living at home, with care wrapped around them while they’re at their most vulnerable.
Support is tailored to a person’s needs and can be any combination of a short term care package, from nursing to therapy to get them back on their feet without having to be hospitalised or needing long term care. GP support is also available within the service.
