I would like to have been involved

When I tried to get involved with the Sense of Community project, I felt that the community pushed me out and I felt abandoned. I haven’t been involved but they did some good stuff. I would like to have been involved as the environment is nicer but I don’t feel part of it.

The challenge for me has being made to feel welcome as I have not been made welcome. The fish that were installed as part of the project are nice (I had the idea initially) but some people monopolize the feeding/cleaning. If we do it again I would like help to be involved. The staff are OK, it’s the patients who all have individual needs.

Many thanks for taking the time to provide feedback on the Sense of Community Project. I am sorry to hear that you did not feel part of the project and to read your comments around feeling abandoned.

It is positive to hear that despite the challenges you had faced that you do wish to be involved in any future projects. I would encourage you to speak with your Ward Manager or contact myself as Modern Matron for the PD Service and we can explore how to move forward with this and ensure that the project reaches out to the community as a whole.
