What is Personal Care?
Support with personal tasks that have become challenging due to illness or age, such as dressing, washing, eating, and medication management.
Our Personal Care Services
At Blooming Care, our Personal Care Services are meticulously crafted to support individuals in their own homes with daily tasks that have become challenging due to illness, disability, or the natural process of aging. Our approach is centred on promoting dignity, independence, and the personal well-being of each individual we support. Here's a detailed look at what our Personal Care Services entail:
Tailored Support Plans
Understanding that each person's needs are unique, we begin with a thorough assessment to create a personalised care plan. This plan encompasses various aspects of personal care, ensuring that support is aligned with the individual's preferences, routines, and lifestyle. It's a collaborative process, involving the individual, their family, and healthcare professionals, to ensure a holistic approach to care.
Assistance with Daily Living Activities
Our dedicated carers provide assistance with a range of daily living activities. This includes help with getting in and out of bed, dressing, and maintaining personal hygiene such as bathing, grooming, and toileting. We recognise the importance of these activities in maintaining a person's self-esteem and independence and approach them with the utmost respect and sensitivity.
Medication Management
Proper medication management is crucial for the health and safety of those we care for. Our carers are trained to assist with medication, ensuring that it is taken correctly and at the right times, in accordance with healthcare professionals' instructions. This includes monitoring for side effects and coordinating with pharmacies for prescription refills, contributing to the overall health and well-being of the individual.
Nutritional Support
Maintaining a balanced diet is vital for health, particularly for those with specific medical conditions or dietary needs. Our carers can assist with meal planning, grocery shopping, cooking, and feeding, ensuring that meals are nutritious and cater to the tastes and dietary requirements of the individual. We also focus on making mealtimes a pleasant, social experience, enhancing the quality of life.
Mobility Assistance
For individuals facing mobility challenges, our carers provide support to safely move around their home and access the community. This includes assistance with walking, transferring, and using mobility aids. Our goal is to encourage as much independence as possible, while ensuring safety and preventing falls.
Continuous Monitoring and Review
Our commitment to care excellence means we regularly review and adapt our care plans to meet changing needs. This ongoing evaluation ensures that our Personal Care Services remain responsive and relevant, providing the best possible support as circumstances evolve.
At Blooming Care, we are dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of those we support. Our Personal Care Services are more than just assistance; they are about enhancing quality of life, promoting independence, and ensuring every individual feels valued and cared for.
