What is Complex Care?
Complex care is also known as long-term or continuing care. It’s when someone needs specialist medical support each day to help manage an ongoing health condition. This might be physical and/or neurological, sometimes resulting in a disability or sensory impairment. Our nurses have extensive experience across a wide range of complex care needs, including:
- Airway management (including tracheostomies and ventilatory support)
- Brain injuries
- Spinal injuries
- Central lines
- Complex medication regimes
- Continence management (Including catheters and bowel management)
- Nutritional support
- Pain management
- Seizure management
- Wound management
- Personal care
- Palliative care / End of life care
Brain injury
We provide individualised care to people living with an Acquired Brain Injury. Our aim is to ensure that people who have sustained a traumatic brain injury, stroke or have another similar condition are provided with the clinical, emotional and therapy support required to maintain their health and independence.
Spinal Injuries
Spinal injuries can affect people in different ways from mild to severe interventions being required. As such your care will be planned to meet your individual needs such as mobility support, bowel and continence management and nutrition and tube feeding. Our nurses and carers will also be fully trained to use any equipment you require to increase your quality of life.
Respiratory Support
Our highly trained staff provide nurse-led breathing and ventilation support to those living with complex conditions. From Long Term Oxygen Therapy to Non-Invasive and Invasive Ventilation, our team of experts will ensure compassionate care delivery that is also aligned to your wider health and holistic needs.
Neurological Conditions
There are a wide range of neurological conditions with many occurring alongside other degenerative diseases. We ensure that people who have conditions such as Parkinson’s Disease, Motor Neurone Disease, Cerebral Palsy, and Multiple Sclerosis can receive support with their mobility, breathing, medication and pain management and dietary intake, all while maintaining social and family connections.
