Home Care Support

Choose our flexible home-care services, anything from a 15-minute check call, to 24 hours live in care. We can offer short-term help (following an illness or because your usual carer is having a break), or long-term home care and support. Our dedicated team of home-care workers is fully trained to:

• Assist with a ‘good morning’ start to the day,  helping you to get up, wash, shower or bathe,  dress and have breakfast

• Remind or assist you to take your medicines  and collect or return medication from your pharmacy or dispensing GP surgery

• Prepare meals with or for you and assist you at mealtimes

• Collect your pension for you or with you

• Shop with you or help you to make a shopping list, go to the shops, come back and put it all away

• Help with your  laundry or ironing  and keeping your home clean and tidy

• Support you with social activities such as going out for a walk, attending a day center, visiting friends or family, going to your church or club etc

• Give a little pampering when you need it – the occasional visit to organize bathing, clean clothes, fresh bedding and a thoughtfully prepared meal before bedtime

• At the end of each day, some help with getting ready for bed

• Overnight ‘sleeper’ or waking support, respite care or a 24 hour live in service

• Some of our offices can also offer home care and support to children and their families either on a regular basis or for short-term respite care
