Our Sunderland carers specialises in home support and offers two main types of care – visiting care and live-in care. Visiting care involved a professional carer visiting your loved one’s home to assist with a variety of daily tasks. This may include personal care, household chores, administering medication or simply providing a source of companionship. A visiting care plan will be tailored to suit the requirements of your loved one and can be amended whenever their needs change.
Live-in care is a fantastic option if your loved one requires more intensive support. A fully-trained carer will move into your loved one’s home and be there to provide them with dedicated round-the-clock care. Having this support will give you peace of mind knowing that your loved one is receiving the level of care that they need to remain safe and comfortable. Here are some of the other home care services offered by our Sunderland team.
Emergency care
Your circumstances can change in an instant and leave you requiring urgent care. For instance, you may become ill and unable to care for a loved one, or you may be pulled away from your caregiver duties due to a family emergency. In these situations, we can usually provide professional emergency care in as little as 24 hours, although this can often be arranged sooner in crisis situations. All of our carers are trained in providing emergency care and supporting families requiring urgent care support. You can have confidence knowing that one of our trusted, fully-trained carers can step in and provide care if you are unavailable for whatever reason.
Dementia care
Dementia is a common health condition that currently affects around 850,000 people in the UK. Having a loved one diagnosed with dementia can be extremely distressing, but it’s important to know that you’re not alone. As one of the UK’s leading dementia home care providers, our care team of specialists has over 30 years of experience supporting people with dementia. We offer the highest standards of dementia care and are also part of the Dementia Action Alliance, which shows our commitment to improving the lives of those with the condition.
Short term care
Short-term care may be required for various reasons. You may be unable to provide care due to work or personal commitments or because of an emergency situation, for example. You can also use our short-term care services to take a break from your caregiving duties. This will give you a well-deserved break from the demands of caregiving to relax and recharge your batteries. Our fully-qualified carers are always available to provide high-quality temporary care – this could be anywhere from a few hours to several weeks. This means you can have complete reassurance that your loved one will always receive the care they need, even when you are not around.
As a family-run company, we take a personal approach and treat every customer as an individual with their own unique care requirements. We will take the time to get to know your loved one and create a completely unique care plan that best suits their needs.
Our service is fully-regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC)– the governing body for care in England ensuring we provide a safe and effective service. All of our carers are dedicated to helping people live independent, fulfilled and happy lives, regardless of age or health conditions.
