When you or a loved one is diagnosed with cancer it shakes your world to its core and can be difficult to come to terms with. The future becomes an uncertainty, and the question of eventual care becomes something you don’t necessarily want to think about. However, knowing that you have things in place in case you eventually need it will enable you to put it out of your mind for the time being, and that’s where our compassionate home care in Cramlington team come in.
Cancer care can be useful at any stage of your condition; you may find you would appreciate a little extra help early on in your treatment journey, perhaps with housework, accessing the community, or just for companionship, or as things progress you may prefer having a carer coming in more regularly and supporting you with more tasks. By letting our carers undertake your everyday household jobs it will give you more time to spend with loved ones, to enjoy your garden, or sit and relax in your beloved pets’ company.
Our carers will work tirelessly to ensure that your everyday routine is upheld and runs as smoothly as possible. We design your care package with you at the centre, and we never consider that ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to cancer support at home. Your personalised support plan will contain every aspect of your preferences down to the smallest detail, which means that however you like things done, we’ll be able to make it happen. You might spend a lot of time in the local community, like going for walks in nature, or just want to access local services, but outside your home and within it, our hardworking carers keep you as independent as possible. We also offer live in care in Cramlington, providing round the clock support.
We only take on a small percentage of the people who apply to join us as carers, and that’s because we feel that unless they share our ethos for delivering exceptional support every single day then they aren’t right for us. We build on their existing skills in supporting people with serious illnesses to ensure that they have all the knowledge and experience they’ll need to care for you effectively at home. This means that however difficult your everyday life becomes, for both you and your loved ones, you’ll have additional support at home to offer help and care at every turn. Not only will they support your physical and emotional needs, they’ll also make sure your family are coping too. All of our carers are subjected to a stringent background check to make sure only people who should be entering your home are doing so, and because our care services are managed by us and fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission across England, you can all be reassured that your everyday care will be exceptional.
