Care For The Elderly
Since Communicare was founded back in 2004, we have always been specialists in caring for the elderly. It has always been a goal of Communicare to give as many people, who require care, the chance of continuing to live full lives in their own homes.
We believe it to be imperative that, if someone is able to, even if they need some assistance, they should have the right to continue living in their own homes for as long as physically possible.
Our Fetac trained healthcare assistants can help you in many aspects of daily living care, including;
Domestic Care
This service is aimed at helping you remain independent in your own home by helping with the essential house work tasks that are necessary to maintain hygiene and safety standards in the home.
These tasks could include;
- Cleaning surfaces
- Loading washing machine/dryer
- Change sheets and make your bed
- Preparing meals
- Running errands (such as weekly shopping)
Companionship
After years of experience working in the home care industry, we’ve often found that sometimes people just need to see a friendly face and have a bit of a chat. Our client care managers always try to match clients with a carer they believe would be most suitable to work with them.
We always like to have our care assistants build a rapport with the clients they work with and just having someone to talk to can really make a big difference to your day.
Personal Care
We always try to tailor our care to suit your needs and we are fully aware of the sensitive nature of receiving personal care. Staying fresh and clean is essential to anyone’s wellbeing and our nursing and care staff are trained in personal matters such as, showering and bathing, to ensure you receive care that you are comfortable with.
We can also assist in other areas such as toileting & continence management, feeding, assisting you with mobility and prompting & supervision of medication.
