Our care services are tailored around the person and offer high quality personalised care that provides continuous support and promotes independent living with emphasis on the person having as much control over their life.
We achieve this high level of care by:
- Working with the person to agree and plan individual support and ambitions
- Championing them to be actively involved in making decisions and choices about their life
- Providing comprehensive reviews on their progress using a validated outcome measure approach
- Having key workers, whose role is to link with our wider team, carers and involved professionals to ensure that care and support remain consistent at all times
- Offering an active balance of life and leisure activities that promote daily living skills and engagement in wider community activities to increase presence and greater participation.
- Supporting the person with their daily activities such as personal care, dressing, nutrition and fluids, healthy eating, physical health, mental health, medication, housing-keeping, personal safety, mobility, support with finances and budgeting
