TAILORED CARE
How We Help
At Rivendell, we conduct a comprehensive assessment to find out more about our clients, this allows us to write a personalised care plan so that your loved one’s remain as comfortable as possible while receiving our high-quality care. This plan includes:
Caring Over The Sabbath
We understand the challenges faced by ageing. Just because our mobility can change it does not mean our values will change. Our care team will be able to assist with tasks such as making Friday night dinner, attending synagogue or helping set up a stream to watch the service from the synagogue.
Day To Day Help Around The Home
Washing, cleaning, ironing, cooking meals and helping with medication are just some of the activities that we can help with. We will work with you to write a care plan taking in to account, likes, dislikes, daily routine, medical history, personal history and much more.
Keeping Active
Whether your goal is to keep active, get assistance with exercises, visit friends, play bridge, go to medical appointments or go to the theatre we can attend and assist. Our carers get a big smile from helping our clients live independent happy lives.
Preparation
We are able to assist around the home to help our Shomer Shabbat clients observe the Sabbath, we can even help prepare Friday night dinner or prepare the home for Passover.
Training
We can provide training and literature to our carers to teach them what it means to keep a Jewish household and share information about cultural values.

Jewish Home Care FAQs
What is Jewish Home Care?
Jewish home care plans are tailored to individuals to ensure they can live comfortable and fulfilled lives without having to give up religious values. We understand each client is different, some of our clients might not want traife in their home but might not be strict with mixing milk and meat whilst others follow strict kosher diets. We understand the importance some of our clients place on their observance and we do our best to accomodate and train our staff so they understand how to be the best carer for Jewish clients.
What Does Keeping a Kosher Home Mean?
Jewish home carers can help with keeping a kosher home. We will detail in our care plans instructions for cleaning tableware. This can also include providing a nutritional plan that follows kosher law and we can provide recepies for the carers to make chicken soup, roast chicken and shakshuka.
