Forget Me Not Program
Forget Me Not Program
Patients living with dementia and delirium are benefiting from the 'Forget Me Not' program at Royal Perth Hospital.
The program is staffed by a dedicated group of trained volunteers, who offer comfort and support to patients with cognitive impairment, specifically dementia and delirium.
The ‘Forget Me Not’ volunteers are able to provide patients with a friendly face, emotional support and practical assistance at a time when they needed it most. This person-centred care can reduce patients’ anxiety and distress levels in an unfamiliar environment, which can assist with recovery.
If being a 'Forget Me Not' volunteer sounds like something you are interested in, please check you meet the below requirements before expressing your interest:
an interest or experience in older people or people with dementia
respect for the beliefs, values and culture of others
good communication skills
have not experienced a major personal loss in the past year (preferred)
ability to contribute as being part of a team
over the age of 18.
If you would like to become involved with the ‘Forget Me Not’ volunteer program contact
