About Us

Derek Browne and Associates have been working with residential homes for many years and their Senti quality and training framework has been designed specifically for this sector.

The Senti care planning methodology is based around the lives of real people with very different needs:-

• Ethel is a patient with full possession of her faculties who can communicate effectively, but because of her terminal condition is totally dependent for her every need

• Geoff has had a significant loss of brain function but can be observed to lead a full life within the limitations of his disability

• Having been in hospital, Marie is now being cared for in a residential care home as she nears the end of her life - a Case Study illustrates how her care is changed by family and care staff observations

Illustrations from real peoples’ lives focus staff on providing tangible evidence that they are concerned with people and use the needs of patients as the primary driver in identifying and implementing improvements.

The ‘Marie’ in Hospital download illustrates the profile of a patient moving from a domiciliary setting into hospital.
