How we can help

Personal Hygiene

We understand some of the challenges of maturing, energy and mobility can make it difficult to shower and bathe without assistance. Our carers are trained to promote dignity when providing personal care. We can help with showering, bathing, bed baths, hair washing and changing continence pads.

Medication Reminders

We can prompt our clients to take medication - this will be recorded in the care folder. If for example, a service user felt unwell at a certain time of the day, this could be matched up with the medication sheet to see if there is an adverse reaction to medication. It is also possible to monitor sleep, mood, continence and more.

Help Around The Home

We can help with cooking, cleaning, ironing and dusting. When conducting the care assessment we can work with you to create a nutritious and delicious menu that caters to dietary requirements. Our carers can cook or can assist and help our clients with meals. Our carers don't just take over and do things in their way- they can help give back independence and deliver "your care, your way".

We use cutting edge technology

Prior to delivering care, we conduct an assessment where we find out about our clients daily routine, how we can help, medical history and more.

Our expertly written care plans contain clear instructions on how to deliver the care in the best and safest way.

The digital system allows our client’s family members to view care notes for completed care visits (subject to approval from client/power of attorney). Real-time care notes are sent when the care has been completed, so you can check the quality and care being delivered.

We celebrate diversity and understand that everyone is different and will have different levels of requirements. Our elderly care team are trained and have practical experience in dealing with different needs such as Dementia, injury recovery, light exercise, respite care Cancer care and more. Each client will receive the highest level of care in the most respectful way – as if they were a member of our own family.

  • What Are The Different Types of Elderly Care?

    There is a range of different options to choose from when it comes to elderly care. The four main types of elderly care available in the UK are:

    • Live-in care
    • Sheltered accommodation
    • Nursing homes
    • Care homes

    When deciding on what care option to choose, you should speak to your loved one and discuss their preferences for a care plan. It would be beneficial to ask your elderly relative whether they would prefer to remain in their own home or move to a residential care home. We also believe it would be useful to ask them what tasks they feel they can’t manage by themselves. You should assess how your loved one is managing with any medication they need to take. If you are concerned that they may be taking incorrect amounts of medication or forgetting to take medication at all, then finding a care solution should be a priority.

  • How is Live in Elderly Care different from residential care?

    The main difference between live-in care and residential care is that with live in care your elderly relative will receive care within their own home, whereas with residential care they move into a building and receive care with others. If your love one needs frequent support with their daily life then a care home could be a suitable option for them. However, some people are happier in a familiar environment surrounded by their loved ones. Live In care has a range of different benefits and can be the right option for your elderly relative.

  • What Are The Advantages Of Live In Care?

    The main advantage of live In care is that your loved one will receive expert care within their own home, enabling them to live in their home with access to support at all times. Live in care enables your elderly relative to maintain as much as their normal life as possible.
