An example of practice from East Renfrewshire, who share their experiences of Advanced Nurse Practitioners and how they support people to stay at home.
As the telecare service developed in Aberdeen City it soon become apparent that training was required for professionals to raise their awareness around telecare, inform them of the functions of telecare equipment and the importance of considering telecare in assessment.
The service had delivered many awareness sessions in telecare events and to individual teams, but it was felt we needed staff across all sectors trained to an enhanced level so they could act as a point of reference for their colleagues.
