Dementia Care
Dementia is a broad term use to describe a range of progressive conditions that can affect the brain. There are different types of dementia, and these usually affect the individual’s memory. Domiciliary dementia care is about providing the support to individuals and their loved ones with the specific challenges presented by their dementia. This support is provided so that the individual can carry on living in the comfortable and familiar environment of their own home. Every case of dementia is unique and adapted as the needs change with the progression of the condition. Our carers are trained to follow the routine of the individual living with dementia, ensuring that they are safe and that they maintain their independence as much as possible. Support can be provided by a visiting carer or a live-in carer.
Emergency Care
Our emergency home care gives you additional essential support at short notice in the times you need it most. Circumstances can suddenly change, meaning that you need home care at the drop of a hat. If you need last minute or emergency care let us know. We will make sure you receive the comprehensive, person-centred care you need. We can arrange for care from a private carer to start in as little as 12 hours of you getting in touch. In a crisis we can often turn this around even quicker.
Live-In Care
Live-in care involves a dedicated carer living in your home to provide 24/7 care and support with whatever is required. A live-in carer can provide valuable companionship, as well as physical support. A friendly live-in carer is ideal if your loved one is living with dementia and is unable to be left alone in their home, or if your loved on has severe physical needs and require constant personal aid around the home. A live-in carer provides valuable companionship and a constant source of friendly, reliable support for the elderly who are living alone.
Overnight Care
Overnight care is when a carer stays overnight to assist with any care needs that one may have. Care during the night is suitable for anyone in need of extra support overnight. With overnight care, a private carer will stay with you throughout the night to provide personal care, reassurance, and companionship. Whatever your personal needs, your carer will be able to support and assist you so that you will maintain your independence, peace of mind and confidence at all hours, and having the reassurance that you can go to bed safe with the knowledge that help is available on site in the event of an emergency.
Respite Care
Respite care offers temporary support by trained carers to ensure that you are getting the support that you need whilst maintaining your independence and safety in the comfort of your own home. It is ideal for when your regular caregiver needs a break, or if you require support on a short-term basis such as when you are discharged from hospital, when you are recovering from a surgery or after an accident.
