Gold Standards Framework Hallmark Quality Award - Aspen Court Care Home

Recipient: Aspen Court Care Home

Date: Thursday 12 Apr 2012

The Gold Standards Framework at Aspen Court is a systematic common-sense approach to formalising best practice, so that quality care and end of life care becomes standard for every service user living there. It embodies an approach that centers on the needs of people and their families and encourages inter-professional teams to work together. GSF can help coordinate better care provided by generalists across different settings.

GSF at Aspen Court has enabled:

Consistent high quality care
Pre-planning and anticipation of needs
Improved staff confidence and teamwork
More home based and less hospital based care
Increased depth of knowledge in holistic approaches
