Personal Care

Sometimes personal care matters can be difficult for a close family member of friend to carry out, without some feelings of awkwardness about a change in relationship. In instances like these, it can be much easier for a trained caregiver who is accustomed to supporting with personal care to step in and help.

Personal Care is support with personal hygiene and assistance with personal appearance. Keeping ones regular routines, and ensuring that support is tailored to specific requirements, a fully trained Home Care Solutions caregiver offers discreet and professional personal care in the way that’s most comfortable to you, or your loved one.

Personal Care offered by our trained, professional caregivers can consist of :

Bathing, including bed baths

Showering

Applying creams and lotions

Dressing

Toileting, including using a commode or bed pan

Routine to get ready for bed

Oral hygiene

Hair care

Support with moving positions in bed, to stretch and prevent bed sores

Even though Home Care Solutions caregivers are trained to provide all aspects of personal care, there may be some things your elderly loved one prefers to do for themselves. Our caregivers will always give them space when they want it and encourage independence wherever they can.

We believe in the importance of a continuous service and the same familiar faces, especially when it comes to personal care. Speak to us to find out more about how we can support you or a loved one.
