@SailGP hi Sail GP. I booked weekend tickets for Portsmouth for myself and a friend with dementia some time ago. He has deteriorated and now he can’t come without his carer. I have tried to contact Fever, but they haven’t helped. Can someone DM me? Thanks

Quality of palliative and end of life care is being placed second to quantity and numerical data too often. More services doesn’t equal better care and the fragmented, inconsistent communication compounds the confusion adding to patient and carer distress.

@Capacitylaw@iPsychApps Alex, have you considered the position in reverse? For example, if a person has the ability to do the first three, but cannot, eg from acquired aphasia that affects the ability to communicate out (but not the ability to understand) (possibly stoke or Primary Progressive Aphasia)
