Mind Jersey is proud to have initiated the Triangle local introduction of Care Best Practice Guide for Jersey. One of its key priorities continues to be The promotion Triangle of Care and Mind Jersey had been working nearly impossible to get this new framework in place here in Jersey. With and about carers, the Trust is a major charity for, and has combined the knowledge, skills, expertise and experience of its founder charities -The Princess Royal Trust for Carers and Crossroads Care -and all of its Network Partners. This new and ground breaking resource is developed in partnership with Adult Mental Health Services, Carers and Health and Social care professionals and it is to be formally launched on Tuesday 14th June at the Hotel de France at 1800 hours. Notice that the Guide, sub titled ‘Carers Included’, was developed in conjunction with the Carers Trust in England and Wales.

For the first time the guide will provide a solid foundation upon which the relationship between service user, health professional and family/carer could be built. Carer model inclusion and support has proved very successful in mental health services in the UK and aims to improve the experiences of unpaid carers of any age irrespective of whom they care for. The guide carries the Carers Trust ‘’KiteMark” and is now widely recognised as inclusion model for carers in services beyond mental health. Locally this is reflected in the interest that is shown in the guide by members of Carers Jersey Association Incorporated.

My friend arrived at school with reddened eyes and tear streaked face, when I was fifteen.

He’d started leaving the house during the night and wandering the streets. He was in dementia late stages. There is a lot more information about this stuff on this site. He explained that his grandfather had been taken into a home the previous day and sitting down to breakfast without him had been horrible. His grandfather’s absence drove home his reality condition and that his family were no longer able to care for him. He’d become convinced that his granddaughter was his teenage wife. The family finally accepted that they could no longer care for him the way he needed, when he was found naked in the local park. Remember, for him to be upset, it must was something terrible. He had already become violent when confused about where he was, and that happened more frequently. He refused to eat because he was convinced he was a prisoner of war again and being poisoned by his captors. Keep reading. He was an ugh kid, often in fights, never one to be ld what to do. This is the case. Incredibly painful, it had been calm and peaceful for the first time in years.

Caring for their family member had become impossible. It’s only one story. While watching him deteriorate until he was incapable of caring for himself, and hereupon further to the spot when he was a danger to himself, was ‘heart breaking’, it was difficult and frustrating. They all knew that moving him to a home was top-notch decision for him but didn’t make them feel any better for a long time. There are millions of others, some similar, some vastly different. That is interesting right? It was a fulltime job spread around the family members. Let me tell you something. It doesn’t capture caring years for a family member as they slowly deteriorate. This was the story end.

These are people who give up some or all of their life to care for others.

The rethink. The savings to governments by having people cared for indoors by family is also immense. The physical, financial and mental strain on carers is immense. This imbalance has been addressed by organisations making an attempt to provide more support for carers. Increasingly, mental health patients are cared for in the apartments. So, changes in mental health care approaches and reduced government budgets, mean that support and facilities are not readily available to carers. Caring for other with mental health issues is difficult. It can take away a person’s own time and their own identity.

The UK based organisation Carers UK, provides excellent information for carers. The UK based organisation Carers UK, provides excellent information for carers.
