SPECIALIST MOBILITY CARE PROVIDED BY TRAINED AND EXPERIENCED CARERS
Our specialist mobility and frailty care is founded on an expert approach to care delivery. All our dedicated carers are experienced in how to care for someone living with the challenges reduced mobility presents. Our gentle and compassionate carers encourage you to live as independently as possible recognise the importance of maintaining control and choice in your life, with all the support you need. Regardless of your circumstances, if you have ever faced mobility concerns such as unsteadiness while walking or difficulties getting in and out of chairs, you may benefit from mobility help at home.
Dressing
Fastening buttons and zips, and tying shoelaces are simple processes to most, however, for many individuals, such things can become impossible and distressing tasks. If you need help getting dressed and undressed, you can rely on our support workers to provide assistance to make things easier and more comfortable for you.
Continence
We are able to support both your urinary and faecal continence whilst preserving your dignity and comfort. Your support worker can help you to get to and from the toilet and, where required, will monitor your personal hygiene in order to ensure your health and comfort. This can include changing catheter and stoma bags, incontinence pads and sheets, and help with bathing and changing clothing.
