As we age, many people need help with the daily tasks of maintaining personal hygiene. Personal care includes daily tasks of bathing, continence care (toileting), skin routines and getting dressed. Good personal hygiene is important for health and well-being. It also helps build self-esteem and confidence. Poor personal hygiene can cause uncomfortable infections and skin complaints.
Our well-trained carers can provide sensitive and respectful home care services. Care is focused on ensuring dignity and independence, in the familiar surroundings of your loved one’s own home. Our highly personalised care plan will capture all their needs and particular preferences.
This could include how, when and where they would like the care and support they need. Their personal care plan covers all their daily routines and how they wish to live their life. There really is nowhere better to receive care and support than in your own home. Your familiar team of carers will get to know you and your personal care needs.
We explore the personal care definition and what personal care means to you and your loved one. We aim to help you and your family plan what is needed, and whether a live-in or daily care service will meet your care needs.
