Companionship Care

Sometimes, all your loved one needs is a friendly face and a listening ear. Our companionship care services are designed to help combat loneliness and social isolation, providing your loved one with the company and engagement they need to maintain their mental and emotional wellbeing. This could involve anything from sharing a cup of tea and a chat to accompanying them to local shops, cafes, or appointments.

Home Help and Light Housekeeping

As daily tasks become more challenging, our home help services can provide the support your loved one needs to maintain their independence and stay in their own home. Our Care Professionals can assist with tasks such as meal preparation, shopping, laundry, and light housekeeping. By taking care of these practical aspects, we enable your loved one to focus on enjoying their life and spending time with family and friends.

Respite Care

Caring for a loved one can be both rewarding and demanding, which is why it’s crucial to take breaks and look after your own wellbeing. Our respite care services provide temporary support, allowing you to take a break, recharge, and return to caregiving with renewed energy and enthusiasm. We can step in and provide seamless care, ensuring your loved one receives the same high standard of support they’re used to while you take some time for yourself.

Specialist Care

We understand that some clients require more specialised support, particularly those living with conditions such as dementia, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, or those who need end-of-life or palliative care. Our Care Professionals receive specialist training, equipping them with the skills and knowledge required to provide the highest level of care for clients with these needs. We can develop tailored care plans that address your loved one’s specific requirements and work closely with healthcare professionals to ensure seamless support.
