The Oban Responder Service
The responder service provides an effective and efficient way to respond to known risks that occur on an unplanned basis, such as falls and other accidents. The responder approach ensures that people remain safe and well in their own home while reducing incidences of ambulance call-outs and hospital admissions. It also enables individuals to move through a planned and risk-managed process towards greater independence and positive outcomes.
This service impacts emergency and community services, reassuring the people we support that someone is always on hand between the hours of 11pm and 7am, allowing many individuals to feel safe at home. We look forward to helping this service grow, develop, and make positive changes for the people we support.
