Other Community Staff

Occupational Therapy & Care Manager

Also within the community team we have two City Council staff-Alison Ewing, Care Manager and Ruth Turnbull Occupational Therapist. They are currently based at Denburn Health Centre but we hope will be re-located here to Carden House in the near future. Alison can be contacted on 01224 555264. Care Managers are involved in assessing for and arranging care services for vulnerable adults.

Ruth can be contacted on 01224 555376 and as an occupational therapist is involved in the assessment and treatment of people of all ages with a disability to enable them to remain as independent as possible within the community

Community Midwife

There is a community midwife based at Carden Medical Centre. As soon as your pregnancy is confirmed she will provide you with all the care and information you require to have a happy, healthy pregnancy. During your pregnancy she arranges informal Parenthood Educational Evenings where mums and dads come together to share knowledge and experiences. The midwife’s antenatal and booking clinic is held on a Thursday morning. She will visit you in your home following the birth of your baby until the baby is ten days old.
