Some good examples of using Hampshire live in care are as follows:
Clients In Receipt Of Hourly At Home Visiting Care
Many families whose loved ones are receiving at home care on an hourly basis from either social services or a care agency worker often come to the decision that 24-hour care at home represents a more cost effective and suitable option. If numerous daily visits are needed, several carers become involved with the care plan and the costs rise, often to a level which is higher than that charged for live in care.
If sleepover care during the night is also required, the care costs also rapidly increase. A UK live in care service like ours offers the advantage of care from just two rotating carers who work for one week each, alternately. This gives more continuity in the care plan while allowing strong and positive relationships to grow between carers and clients.
Providing At Home Care for Couples
Our live-in care in Hampshire service can be invaluable for older couples who either both require care or just one needs a little extra support at home. With live in care, elderly couples are enabled to stay together and enjoy living in their own home but with the reassurance of a carer living with them to offer domestic support, medication assistance and help with personal care. This also represents a major saving in costs versus the expense of residential care, with no need to pay for two beds in a care home.
Discharge From The Hospital
When elderly patients are being discharged from the hospital, it’s important to have proper care in place which is not only safe but also sustainable. With our Hampshire live in care team on board, it’s possible to arrange a managed hospital discharge, with our team carrying out a comprehensive assessment of needs both in the home and in hospital as well as liaising with the healthcare team on the ward.
Handling Special Care Needs
If an elderly person has a complex condition like Parkinson’s Disease or dementia, or if they require some specialist support to take their medication, live in care in England on a full time basis could be the most effective solution when compared with domiciliary care. It’s usually a preferable solution to moving into a nursing home or residential care facility since there is better care continuity provided by live in carers. There is also a more personalised service as well as a more genuine relationship which can be formed between the carer and their client.
Preventing Falls From Occurring
One serious cause of poor health and admission to hospital when it comes to older people is falls. If a live-in carer in Hampshire is always present , they can have a major role to play in safeguarding against the possibility of falls while ensuring that the client is able to continue living safely in their own home. Live in carers can also raise an alarm rapidly should their client fall and need medical attention urgently. This helps to guard against serious events such as admission to hospital.
