Always good when you discover an organisation is looking at adopting the Butterfly Scheme because someone working at a member hospital has recommended it #dementia #care #hospital

Huge thanks to the fabulous staff of @thelondonclinic who attended @ButterflyScheme training today; your engagement and enthusiasm were superb. We really appreciated the heartwarming feedback and the warm welcome. Enjoy using the Scheme! #dementia #memorysupport

Well done to Nina Warhurst and #BBCBreakfast for a very sensible, sensitive, well-expressed and helpful piece this morning about LPAs and how tough it is for carers trying to support loved ones without an LPA.

Post-pandemic care restoration is one thing, but new hospital #Dementia Leads coming into role and finding nothing at all in place - and no ambition from bosses to actually put anything in place - is quite another. It’s happening all the time now - like slipping back 10 yrs.

It’s always uplifting when someone who’s had @ButterflyScheme at their previous organisation recommends it at their new one - but when the newly-appointed Lead there has also passionately recommended it for the same reason, that’s special! Loved finding this out today! #dementia

The person-centred care document people with #dementia and their #carers have in #hospital belongs to them; it is not part of the hospital’s own documentation for electronic access only. They and the entire staff team need constant access to read/amend it. #wholeteamdementiacare

What an excellent morning! Liaised about the smoothest #dementia care leadership takeover ever, in one of the member Trusts - then a superb session with a new Lead in another Trust who I just know is set to shine. That you to both new Butterfly Scheme Leads. Brilliant!

Sincere thanks to Janice for having the generosity to share her experiences; in doing so, she helps others gain valuable insight into life with #dementia. Janice, your hard work is appreciated - and hearing about Eric’s care is very special, too. Love to you both xx

At this morning’s virtual gathering of Butterfly Scheme Leads, we had people leading at hospitals in Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland. Such a privilege to be able to gather them in one “room” and have their combined participation 😊

Teams meeting with an Irish Dementia Lead included the hugely uplifting news that she even ran out of leaflets on a #dementia information stand last month. Not long ago at all, people in that part of Ireland rarely talked about dementia; she had conversations all day. Progress!

Spent the morning attending the final meeting of the three-year Da Vinci Project, run by @THIS_Institute to explore #dementia alerts in hospitals. Consensus that a whole structure needs to surround identifiers in order to reliably deliver insightful, supportive dementia care.
