 Home for life, extra care means improving customer's quality of life. It's my independence and I live in fear that somebody should take it away from me. Extra care for me means that I'm safe, that I sleepwalk and I go quite a few places. Without their help I'd be lost, but it doesn't work. I recently facilitated a resident move into extra care and they said it felt like they'd won the lottery. This is my birth month and I love it here very much and I love all the staff. If you were on your own completely you would have to do, well just struggle. But with extra care it means there's help there. And also it's nice to have friends coming in and that's what these carers are, friends. People being able to stay independent for longer living in their own homes with the assurance of extra support. Extra care means you have the advantage of living in your own flat, but you have the support and backup of the care team who are resident on site. It's like living with a safety net underneath you and it means that if I'm ill I know Gordon's being taken care of. I don't have to worry. Extra care to me means an opportunity for our residents to engage in the community. Extra care means to me making sure customers stay in their homes independently for as long as possible. It's helped my mental health. Extra care reduces loneliness and isolation. I'm very happy here. Extra care is about working in partnership to give people a better life. Making a difference to every individual here, taking them out, doing different things with them. We keep people out of residential care and this becomes their home for life. Extra care supports people to remain healthy and stay out of hospital. It means that I can live with my husband who's got a lewie body dementia in our lovely flat and I'm his carer. Not well, the fact that they are carers here who could help me because before I never had that one was really hard. And it also means that I've got other people around us where we can circulate and have some fun times. It means people can stay independent as much as they can and it stops them being isolated. It gives you more help if you need any help anytime and if you need more support. My life has changed for the better. Extra care is about hope and living your life no matter what your needs are.
