Services
Health Promotion:
Staying fit and healthy is an important part of maintaining good mental and physical fitness at any age. If a customer has an interest and ability to participate in local -activities, our care workers are able to support them and be involved as part of the homecare plan. Or perhaps a customer may want support to do some simple activities at home.
Engaging in a healthy active lifestyle helps stimulate the brain and assists in staying independent. It can also be immensely enjoyable.
Assessments and Referrals:
We design admission prevention schemes around all conditions for our service users. Close monitoring of a service users health coupled with close liaison with local based community services enables us to obtain a quick response should the service user require the assistance of the Occupational Therapist, GP, Physiotherapist, District Nurse or CPN.
The primary aim of this service is to reduce the need for hospital visits and admission as well to ensure that that the service users lead as comfortable, without fear and independent life in their community . So when you are looking at one to one care it is our expertise and experience that will notice detailed changes in our service user’s health. Quick Response times mean that prevention of hospital admission is often eliminated.
We continuously risk assess our service users and have various screening tools to help reduce the risk of dehydration, falls and pressure sores to name a few.
Sleeping Night:
With our sleep-in night service one of our Care Workers will sleep in your home during the night hours and provide you with peace of mind.
Some of the specific benefits of physical activity are:
- Reducing the risk of developing chronic diseases;
- Aids in the management of active problems such as high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity and high cholesterol:
- Improves the ability to function and stay independent in cases where people have lung disease or arthritis;
- Reduces symptoms of depression and pain; and
- Improves balance and prevents falls.
We encourage and support our service users to take part in simple, healthy activities, which may include something as basic as walking. Of course, participation in any activity will depend on the service user’s choice and abilities. A member of our team will discuss your preferences with you as part of your tailored care and support plan.
