He has a stoma, the management of which is part of our service and lives in a rural location in Northamptonshire with his placid old labrador. The client is very practical about his circumstances and is keen to maintain a quality of life. He has had recent falls and uses a range of mobility equipment (frame and wheeled commode).

At present the client also needs support with his tableted medications. Full training will be provided for all management of his care.
