The Patient Resource of the Year at the BMA Patient Information Awards was awarded to Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust for their Patient Information Diary. The diary is a communication aid between patients with dementia and their carers and healthcare workers. It aims to provide a basic awareness to healthcare workers of the needs of patients with dementia.
The diary contains sections on personal history, communication, daily routine and respect and dignity. To see a copy of the diary click here.
This award was one of three on the night for Rotherham. For details of all the high commended and commended resources go to the BMA web site.
