Home Help
Having a carer come to visit you in your home can make a huge difference to your life, especially if you have difficulty walking or getting around. It can help you stay living independently in your own home.
Our home help service is aimed at supporting you or your loved one with those tasks around the home that you face challenges performing, and to ensure your safety.
We are committed to improving the welfare of our Service Users. These are some of the tasks we can offer help with:
- Housework
- Laundry
- Preparing light meals/meal delivery
- Companionship
- Running errands, e.g. prescription collection
Your Care Plan
Your care plan will outline your likes and dislikes, the hygiene or beauty products you want to use and what – and who – you feel most comfortable with. Particular tasks, such as cutting nails, shaving and diabetic foot care, will always be outlined in your support plan.
Your Carer
Each carer is expertly trained to provide personal care in a way that is discreet and respectful of your personal boundaries. They undertake extensive training where they learn the importance of enabling your dignity and independence at all times.
Your Preferences
Even though Carers are trained to provide all aspects of personal care, there may be some things you’d prefer to do for yourself. A good carer will always give you space when you want it and encourage your independence wherever they can.
