“I am so glad that we made the choice to keep my father at Maple House where he was
comfortable, clean and with people that he knew well and was well

The Gold Standards Framework in Care Homes Training Programme has
developed from grass roots work with care home staff, adapted from GSF
in Primary Care specifically for this care. The programme, originally for nursing
homes, now includes residential care homes, learning disabilities, young physically
disabled and those providing dementia care.
“Thank you for all the care, kindness, friendship and love that you have shown to Mum.
For the past 21/2 years Maple House has been her home.” – C

“The fact that there is now a Gold Standard for palliative care means not only that everyone now knows what
can be achieved, but that patients and families are beginning to know what they should be asking for - and
expecting!”
