We aim to improve the daily lives of those we care for
Alongside meeting their health and wellbeing needs, visits by our carers are welcomed as an opportunity for social interaction.
We want our carers to get to know the people they care for well, and we know that seeing a familiar face can be important, so we do our very best to arrange visits from same carers each time.
We encourage those we care for to make the most of their days, to socialise and keep up any interests and hobbies. We try to build confidence and encourage independence wherever possible.
The people we care for come from diverse backgrounds and cultures. Wherever possible, we try to meet these individual needs by selecting carers who match these respective cultures and languages.
Mum has been given a new lease of life with the carers... They have encouraged her to go to the Day Centre. She used to be in the house 24 hours a day, every day.
