Carers Referral Form
This referral form, designed for professionals, allows you to connect Carers to essential support from the Memory Navigation Service. It takes just a few minutes to complete, but the difference it can make in the lives of Dementia Carers or individuals living with dementia is immense.
Why Your Referral Matters
Caring for a loved one with dementia can significantly impact the well-being of family members. Carers often find themselves managing a wide range of responsibilities, from medication and medical appointments to personal care and daily tasks, all while ensuring their loved one is safe and well. Many Carers reduce work hours or leave employment entirely to provide care, often relying on limited financial support despite the demanding hours involved. Balancing work and caring can strain their own health and affect family dynamics.
Individuals with memory concerns may hesitate to discuss their worries with loved ones, fearing they will cause unnecessary concern. This, combined with navigating complex support systems, can be challenging and exhausting for both Carers and those affected by memory loss.
How the Memory Navigation Service Can Help
Our specialised Dementia Support Workers and nurse offer attentive, compassionate listening, creating a personalised plan to ease the challenges Carers face. The Memory Gateway monthly information session introduces Carers to the full range of support services, reassuring them that they are not alone on this journey. Additionally, the Memory Navigation Service website provides accessible digital resources and guidance at any time.
Carers registered with the Memory Navigation Service also benefit from the range of support available through Carers in Bedfordshire, including events, well-being support, the Carers Grant, access to the Hospital Hub, and more.
