Springwood is a 14 bedded ward for patients living with Dementia who also have additional frailties, vulnerabilities and behaviours that challenge. Our patients are transferred to us from assessment and treatment wards in North Yorkshire where it has been identified that the patient requires a longer period of treatment in hospital or may have had failed placements in care home environments.

Our focus is on positive behaviour support and the development of support plans that then follow patients through discharge into their new homes.

We will support you by offering regular supervision, training opportunities and encourage your development and role within this developing team on the delivery of Patient Centred Care, support for carers and evidence based practice.
