HomeLife Carers Limited

How we can help

From simple domestic chores such as cooking, cleaning and shopping to more personal tasks such as bathing, personal care or assistance with medication, our carers can offer assistance with a wide variety of tasks. We can deliver specialised care for those with more specific needs and ensure that our staff are continuously trained to provide the best care possible.

Respite and temporary care

Respite care from HomeLife Carers is a short term care solution enabling a carer, who may be a family member, to take a break. We can also provide cover for illness and emergencies. Respite care is defined as care which is provided for two weeks or less and, as with people using our services longer term, our care workers can move in to the home and provide the full range of care services.

Personal care

Personal Care services can be provided by all Care Workers at HomeLife Carers. Such services include; helping you to get up in the morning, washing, dressing, toileting, bed-making, helping you to go to bed at night. Our carer workers are training to promote as much independence as possible whilst providing the support and assistance when needed.

Support for young people

HomeLife Carers provides support Workers to younger people with a wide range of dependency levels and needs, in their own homes, at work or whilst in full-time education. Support provided to younger people is tailored to your needs and more often includes support with socialising, studying, working and playing sport. Again we support high levels of dependency and where required work closely with health and social care partners.

Medication

All Care Workers are trained to assist with all medicines and can be there to help and prompt you for medication that has been prescribed by your doctor; this is however subject to certain restrictions which would be explained to you and assessed during the development of your care plan.

Personal services

Personal tasks such as preparing shopping lists, doing the shopping, collecting your pension (with your specific permission only) and helping to manage personal affairs such as birthdays and other anniversaries, are all tasks which your Care Worker is able to carry out with you/for you.

Home help and domestic services

Your Care Worker will be able to undertake light domestic chores such as hoovering, dusting and general cleaning, washing up and personal laundry. Subject to certain limitations, your Care Worker will also be able to help with light gardening duties.

Preparation of meals

Your Care Worker will be able to help you prepare your breakfast, your mid-day meal, evening meal or supper and any other refreshments required during the day. If appropriate, your Care Worker can also sit with you while you have your meals for companionship purposes.

Sitting services

HomeLife Carers can offer a sitting service, providing other main carers (who may be a family member) with a break, or providing companionship for those who may live alone. Clients can also be taken out during such visits to local attractions, visitor centres or any other venues which would all be fully assessed

Night care

HomeLife Carers offer a Night Care service which we have segmented into two categories of care. These include an Awake Service for clients who require constant attention during the night for which the Care Worker will not sleep and a Sleeping Service for clients who do not wish to be left alone during the night. The Care Worker will expect to sleep and a bed should be provided for sleeping services.
