As with the evolving ageing population and enhanced medical intervention, many residents will have signs of early dementia and some will be living with advanced dementia. Relationship Centred Care (RCC) can be defined as care in which all participants appreciate the importance of their relationship with one another. It highlights the importance of not only meeting the needs of the residents but also addressing the needs of relatives who visit and team members who work in care settings. This approach recognises that quality care happens when there are strong relationships among everyone involved in care: residents, relatives, care, Hospitality and operations team.

The post holder will support every member of the Nightingale Hammerson team to sustain this vital model of care and continue to monitor, evaluate and develop care planning and processes and support and develop experienced and new team members in order that RCCS stays at the heart of the NGH care service.

We believe that RCCS will support the organisations’ objectives to understand what matters most to the residents and focus on positive goals and outcomes for their care.
