provides access to support services and activities

 A person centred service that helps people with social

and emotional needs, e.g. social isolation, low level depression or anxiety, bereavement, financial difficulties

 57% of patients referred are over 55 and many are

experiencing anxieties about their medical conditions or wellbeing

e.g. GP, nurse or non-clinical staff

• 2. Community Navigator meets the person 1-2-1, usually in

their own home

• 3. Initial assessment = guided conversation (1 hour appt.)
• 4. Offer and discuss a range of options and facilitate onward

referrals

• 5. Following up after agreed amount of time to ensure support
• 6. Usually 1 or 2 face to face appts. with follow up phone calls.
• 7. A record of what has been done is sent back to the referrer
