What does it do?

The Care Navigation Service has been developed to support older people to keep healthy, safe and independent in their own home.

Age UK South Staffordshire is working with South Staffordshire District Council and South East Staffordshire and Seisdon Peninsular Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) to provide the service.

The aim of the service is to work alongside the Health Service and provide 'supported signposting' to older people, which is a free service which supports older people who are undergoing change in their lives and may need information and help accessing services.

The aims of the service are to reduce social isolation, imporve economic wellbeing, manage physical and mental health, and maintain an independent lifestyle living safely at home, within the local community.

The older person will stay in control and be at the cnetre of any decision about their welfare.

Nothing will happen without consent from all individulals supported by the Service.
