Community Care Services

Our main aim is to help you to remain independent in your own home for as long as possible. We do this by ensuring that our care packages are tailored to individual needs, which is done following an assessment with a qualified assessor. Client’s care packages are tailored to daily living assessments and can include any of the services listed below:
• Assistance with washing or bathing |
 |
• Housework, including washing and ironing
• Helping with preparation of meals or preparing meals as appropriate
• Assisting with medication
• Accompanying clients to appointments (Hospital, Doctor, Dentist, Chiropractor etc)
• Accompanying clients to social events (Women’s Institute, Round Table & Rotary Luncheons), the carer will take the client and either stay at the event with the client or go back later to pick them up and take them home
• Accompany clients to the Theatre
• Sitting with clients whilst their main carer is out, or to play cards, scrabble or other activities
• Night Service, either a sleep night or an awake night. The aim of this service is to provide reassurance and company for those feeling anxious or vulnerable overnight, the carer also provides assistance with personal needs in the morning before leaving.
• Respite cover whilst the main carer is away, this can be for two or three calls a day right the way through to a 24 hour care package

We provide care packages from half an hour a week for such tasks as popping in to make sure a client is alright, to much larger packages of care which provides for those who have complex needs, for example, clients with Multiple Sclerosis, Epilepsy, Stroke victims, clients with mental health problems such as Alzheimer's Disease or Dementia.
