Enter and view - Dignity - Vi & John Rubens House Residential Home

A number of visits to residential homes and hospitals have been planned as part of our project seeking to collect people’s personal experiences of dignity and respect within health and social care services

Results of Visit

Each time a resident or their relative was spoken with, it was explained who we were and why we were there. Residents were informed that their responses would be confidential and anonymised prior to any comments being included in the public report. Representatives were asked to confirm with the individual that they were happy to speak with them.
