Thanks to funding from The League of Friends of Queen Elizabeth Hospital, our Charity has been able to support our dementia colleagues with the purchase of an interactive sensory machine for use in the Elderly Care Wards at Queen Elizabeth Hospital.  

The Mobii Interactive Sensory Table and Floor Projector provides sensory activities to our patients, encouraging social interaction, movement, mental stimulation, and overall emotional wellbeing. There are 150 different activities, ranging from painting flowers and walking through fish-filled water to playing games. The portable system can be taken wherever it is needed and can be projected on to bedside tables and floors. And with the support of our fantastic LGT volunteers, patients are already benefitting from this engaging new addition.

Kate Hudson, Lead Dementia Nurse Specialist, explained: “We feel very lucky to have received the Mobii Magic Surface interactive table, it is a fantastic piece of equipment for our patients living with dementia. This is a really exciting addition to our care of the elderly wards at Queen Elizabeth Hospital. It is an engaging resource that allows patients to interact through touch, sound, and sight. Our patients love the quizzes, music, and fun activities, and one photograph or song can evoke a flood of beautiful memories, reducing their anxiety and improving their wellbeing. It's amazing to see how our patient’s faces have lit up and reacted to the new machine, so a special thanks to the League of Friends at Queen Elizabeth Hospital.” 

The League of Friends of Queen Elizabeth Hospital has been incorporated into our Trust Charity.

We were please to invite League of friends members Diane, Beverley, Joyce, and Kathleen to a demonstration of the new interactive system. Also a special mention to LoF trustee's Mark, Olive and Margaret. 

Diane Hudson, League of Friends at Queen Elizabeth Hospital, said: “We are delighted to have been able to purchase such a wonderful piece of equipment to help enhance the lives of our dementia patients.”   

 

Margarita Vidiella, Head of Charity, added: "We are grateful to the League of Friends of Queen Elizabeth Hospital for all their support over the years. The Mobii Interactive Sensory Table and Floor Projector is another generous addition that is already making a huge difference to our patients at LGT."

Our charity is committed to enhancing the experience for our patients at Lewisham and Greenwich NHS Trust, we are delighted to support the Dementia Team at Queen Elizabeth Hospital with this equipment to ensure our patients receive the best possible care available.
