SERVICE DETAILS
Penumbra Milestone is a partnership with NHS Lothian, City of Edinburgh Council (Department of Health and Social Care) and Waverley Care.
It is an alcohol-free 10-bedded step-down unit to provide short-term care for vulnerable men and women, aged 18+, who have a diagnosis of Alcohol Related Brain Damage (ARBD).
Alcohol-related brain damage (ARBD) is a brain disorder caused by regularly drinking too much alcohol over several years.
We aim to assist in all aspects of an individual’s recovery programme and rehabilitation.
The emphasis on the unit is to maintain capacity to reduce delay in acute hospitals whilst providing an environment conducive to rehabilitation and recovery from the patient’s cognitive impairment.
