Heart warming approach to facilitating care home visits from @janeeedouglas and @dtbarron at our meeting today. This should be an example to all other care companies. #personcentredapproach #visitingcanhappensafely

Making meals or eating in dull lighting can affect the amount you eat. Ability to process light can reduced with dementia or sight changes. Regular eye tests, brighter bulbs, extra lighting or a timer for lights help make food easier to see. #withDietitiansYouCAN @BDA_Scotland
Wishing you all the best and a happy retirement 😍 xx – at Monifieth, Scotland

Pleased to hear @JeaneF1MSP announce at the #DailyBriefing additional measures to enable support for #carehome visits. None of this is easy but working together we will keep people connected with less risk where it is possible in the weeks ahead. gov.scot/binaries/content/do…
