Philosophy & Aim of Service:

Our services aim to meet the needs of the clients and their carers, ensuring that all carers and others who matter to the patient receive psychological, spiritual, social or practical support, which is responsive to their perceptions and needs, from diagnosis to death and into bereavement.

"


Consequently, we aim to:

• Provide person centred individual support to tackle isolation, loneliness where health and frailty play a significant role.
• Provide support for clients and carers at any stage of the disease/ ageing process.
• Support packages will be responsive to identified needs, based on an agreed scope of service.
• Support packages will be time limited with referral onwards if longerterm needs are identified.
• To provide continuity from volunteers based on a named person model.
• Where appropriate coordinator or post holder will link to other services when assistance with personal care is required.
• The Philosophy of the Home from Hospital service reflects the basic principle that all life is sacred, and we accept the challenges of serving our neighbour, especially those who suffer the indignity of lacking the essential components to human flourishing.

From this basic principle it follows that:

• Home from Hospital believes every individual should be respected, valued and have dignity.
• Every individual should be supported and encouraged to reach his or her potential at every stage of life.
• Home from Hospital believes that above all people matter more than structures and organisations and accordingly the individual and their needs will be at the heart of our service.
• Home from Hospital believes in cooperative and collaborative partnerships to fulfil our obligations to our clients.

Hours of Service:

The service will operate initially during normal office hours (Monday-Friday 9 am-5 pm) but a flexible approach to working hours is required to meet the needs of the service and out of hours working will be needed.

This may involve the post holder providing an on-call service along with the staff team.
