How Promedica24 Supports Community Engagement and Charitable Initiatives to Address Patient Isolation and Loneliness in West Sussex
Promedica24 is dedicated to providing personalised live-in care services that enhance the quality of life for clients. Addressing patient isolation and loneliness is a core part of their mission. Senior isolation can lead to significant mental and physical health issues, making social engagement crucial.
Promedica24 recently achieved notable success by sponsoring the Glamour Club, an initiative aimed at combating loneliness through social events, which was recognised at the Worthing Business Awards. This sponsorship underscores their commitment to fostering community connections and improving senior well-being.
Understanding the Challenge of Isolation and Loneliness
In West Sussex, a significant number of older people experience isolation and loneliness. Isolation and loneliness can lead to mental and physical health problems, such as depression, anxiety, cognitive decline, and weakened immune function.
Addressing these challenges is essential for improving the overall well-being of people in our care, and initiatives like those by Promedica24 are crucial for fostering social connections and enhancing quality of life.
Promedica24’s Commitment to Community Engagement
Promedica24’s community engagement strategy focuses on reducing people’s isolation through active participation in local initiatives. They collaborate with local organisations to host events and activities that promote social interaction.
Key partnerships include the Glamour Club, which organises social gatherings for older people, and other local charities focused on elderly well-being. These efforts combat loneliness and foster a sense of community and support for the elderly in West Sussex.
Highlighting the Glamour Club Sponsorship
The Glamour Club combats loneliness by hosting social events for people, such as afternoon tea and dancing. Promedica24’s sponsorship of the Glamour Club supports these initiatives, enhancing social interaction and reducing isolation among the elderly.
This partnership was recently recognised at the Worthing Business Awards, highlighting the positive impact and community value of Promedica24’s commitment to addressing senior loneliness and fostering a supportive community in West Sussex.
