High Dependency Nursing Home in Liverpool

This service is primarily aimed at meeting the
needs of older people aged 65+ (but not limited to)
with a diagnosis of dementia; defined as "a clinical
syndrome characterised by a widespread loss of
mental function including memory loss, language
impairment, disorientation, change in personality,
self-neglect and behaviour which is out of
character."
Individuals placed at Paisley Court's residents are
often at a point in their dementia when they have
very complex needs and often these are about
changes in their behaviour. These may have led to
them being unable to be supported in a standard
EMI placement and require specialist interventions
provided by Paisley Court. The NHS Standard
Contract commissions 41 beds from the 60 beds
available at the nursing home for individuals
meeting the complex criteria for placement at
Paisley Court.
