About this service
Offers a service for older adults with complex and responsive behaviours linked to (dementia, neurological conditions, substance use and mental illness). Person-centered care and support for this population and their caregiver will be provided wherever they live at home, in long-term care, or elsewhere.
The term responsive behaviours represents an unmet need(s) or desire that may be expressed by the individual in the form of mood changes; verbal or physical responses such as agitation, wandering, aggression; sexual expressiveness, etc.
BSO has developed and implemented new care models focusing on quality of care and quality of life for persons with complex behaviours. These people need to be cared for in a way that respects their individuality. Their care plan may adjust their environment, change the way their caregivers relate to them, or find meaningful activities for them to do. The individual programs will additionally help reduce the risks to themselves and others.
Who can use it?
Older adults with complex behaviours linked to dementia, substance use, mental illness
