We know that there are many individuals who need an extra helping hand with their daily lives. To support them, we can offer a personal assistant that meets all kinds of requirements. Our team have more than 30 years of experience between them. Therefore, they know what to do to keep everyone happy and healthy.

As we get older, it is more common for us to visit the hospital. There could be some respiratory issues or a spike in blood pressure. Even after discharge, family members often can’t stop worrying. If there is a lapse in your care plan, there can be more problems.

This is why respite care can be useful, something we have plenty of experience with. Families can call upon our caregivers to ensure their family member is cared for properly post-discharge. Carry on reading if you would like to discover the specific ways respite care can aid your family members.

Changing the environment

Firstly, it can help with modifying the environment. For the elderly with mobility problems, making alterations to the living space can be extremely helpful. Examples include keeping a chair under the shower area and installing support rails. It can be tricky to adjust to these changes. However, one of our caregivers can help. The extra support is really useful here and can include help moving around and many other routine daily jobs.

Medication

Another detail respite care can help with is managing medicines. Many illnesses require you to take medication. You may also have an ongoing condition to manage with it. However, it is easy to forget to take pills. When there is a support worker visiting regularly, we will ensure that you don’t miss any. This can be crucial to post hospital recovery and ongoing health.
