"You can't enhance perfection"

About: Locality Health and Care Services / Day Services - North

(as a staff member posting for a patient/service user),

I enjoy everything about the Ross Court Day Service. I have a lot of health issues, and a sore arm, which makes taking part in activities hard. But the staff always accommodate, and find ways to do things which means I won't feel sore and will still be able to join in. The whole place is geared up for disabilities and is a very safe environment. 

It's a home from home, we have a great laugh and honestly you can't enhance perfection. Thanks are due to all of the staff, they really put in the effort. 
I used to go to a day service in Dumfries which was open five days a week, and during my time with them I had a lot of positive experiences. One time I worked with a younger person with learning difficulties and taught them how to sew. I would like this service in Galston to be open more days a week, and have more opportunities to interact with younger generations to pass on knowledge.

Hi,

My name is Ally and I manage the Older Persons Day Care Service. Thanks for your feedback - we try to deliver person-centred care so its great to hear staff are taking account of your abilities and ensuring you are included.

We have intergenerational groups at some of our larger day centres - we will look into your suggestion about this at Ross Court.

I will pass on your comments to the team at Ross Court and the Day Centre Co-ordinator. Thanks again for taking the time to comment.

Kind regards,

Ally
