Ulverston dementia unit awarded national gold standard

"The Beckside Unit at Elmhurst residential home in Ulverston has been awarded gold certification by Stirling University - one of only a handful in the country to gain the specification for a converted building.

"A presentation of the award will be held at 1.30pm on Friday 24th September at Elmhurst on Priory Road, Ulverston.

"Prof June Andrews from Stirling University will be making the presentation to Cllr James Airey, Cumbria County Council's Cabinet member responsible for adult social care, and senior officers at the council. Stirling University is recognised as one of the country's leading experts on specialist care for people with dementia. "

It's good to know that people suffering from dementia receive such a good service.

Thank you staff.
