How can homecare services support the independence of the elderly?

There’s something pretty special about passing your driving test. Why? Because it’s that beautifully freeing feeling that all adults desire and deserve… independence..

No one wants to give it up and nor should they. Popping to the shops. Meeting friends. A bit of quality “you” time; independence is vital at all ages and stages.

It’s our very firm belief that whether you’re 22 or 92, it should firmly stay on the menu. Whether your loved one needs a hand with the shopping (let’s be honest, we’d all outsource that if we could) or specialist homecare support is required; the right help can boost independence, quality of life and companionship all in one.

Why is it important to promote independence (regardless of age)?

A sense of value, social interaction, community engagement, mental stimulation, autonomy, and let’s not forget a little on-hand assistance to lighten the load.

Whether it’s your mum, dad, grandparents, or favourite uncle; independence matters. It’s been shown to promote:

• Mental and physical wellness
• Quality of life
• Self-esteem
• Sense of purpose
• Confidence and motivation
• Feeling needed and valued

While you’re busy worrying about them, they might well be worrying about you. Transitioning from being your parent to needing care isn’t easy. They won’t want to be a burden, and they don’t have to be.

If you know a little (or a lot) of high-value quality care that promotes independence is what you all need, then allow us to let you know how it works.

How does professional home care work…?

#1: An experienced care professional will conduct a comprehensive bespoke care assessment for your loved one.

#2: Your loved one will receive a consultative, considered, bespoke care plan – with their input, your input and the input of any relevant medical professionals.

#3: We’ll create a daily timetable so that every need during every day or night is met.

No more panic about who’s covering a 3pm doctor’s appointment. No more worrying about meals, getting out and about, or covering the basics. It’s a new lease of life for your loved one and peace of mind for all the family.

As the hands of time turn, your loved one will enjoy all the benefits of proactive, compassionate care. It’s one of the reasons we began the Pure Life journey. Most of the team joined us and felt “the call” for this very reason. No one should have to watch a loved one wilt due to inadequate professional care.

Our team receives ongoing training, mentoring, and a top-scale salary as we know just how valuable happy home care is.

It’s the gift of independence

At Pure Life Care, quality of life is what we uphold. Whether it’s the simple things like a nice cup of tea and a friendly chat or the more complex personal care characteristics that age can bestow upon us; quality > quantity.

Our expert team are on hand to answer your questions, provide the benefit of experience and deliver a bespoke care plan that helps you breathe a sigh of relief.

It’s time to start living again with all the joy of independence and options. If you’d like to discuss your family’s needs, then please reach out to us here for a chat
