Talking Points in Denbighshire continue

The Talking Points sessions are continuing in Denbighshire, offering people a different way to find out what help might be available in the community to support their health and well-being.Talking Points 2

Working with partner organisations we aim to respond faster and in a more personally tailored way to people, rather than a more traditional ‘one size fits all’ approach.  Under this new model, if residents are able to visit their GP they will be expected, in general, to attend a Talking Points rather than be visited at home.

At the Talking Points residents will have an opportunity to meet with someone who is knowledgeable about social care issues.  They will be able to find out what is going on in their area in a convenient, appropriate and welcoming venue and talk about the well-being outcomes they desire for themselves or others. The focus will be to find out what is important to them so that they can live the life they choose in a safe and secure environment.  

If someone needs help with daily life please ask them to come along to a Talking Point or phone the Single Point of Access on 0300 456 1000 to make an appointmentTalking Points
