Our approach to care at home is person-centred, which involves valuing the individuality of each person. We take into account their needs, preferences and strengths and create the opportunity for them to make informed choices about their care and treatment, in partnership with their health and social care practitioners.

 

Providing person-centred care also involves recognising and supporting the unique personal history and personality of individuals. Care at Home is an ideal way to do this as the client remains in their own home, even when they require full time care, and the care plan is based around the lifestyle of the individual. We take into account legislation and client well being in our efforts to fulfil a client’s individual requirements.

 

Specifically, in cases of dementia, our workers are trained to understand the world from the perspective and experiences of the person they are caring for and be able to demonstrate empathy through action and support.
