Personal Care

The Care Collection understands that it may be difficult to accept that support is needed, particularly with personal care. We are aware that some people may find it undignified and embarrassing.

Providing a discreet and professional personal care service is at the forefront of what we believe in. All of our Carers are trained to provide personal care in a manner that’s respectful of personal boundaries. Using clever, tried and tested techniques we ensure dignity is preserved throughout each visit.

Jane’s Story

We have provided Personal Care services to Jane for the last 18 months.

Jane has early stage Dementia and needs support with getting up in the morning, getting washed and preparing herself for the day. We also provide her with an hour of care in the evening to assist her to get ready for bed.

Jane regularly attends social events and always wants to look her best and we are proud to be able to assist her with that.

What is Elderly Personal Care?

By the year 2030, over 30% of the UK population will be aged 65 or older. Beginning to think now of housing and care options for our elderly population is important.

Currently, only about 4% of the UK’s ageing population has moved into a nursing or residential care home. It’s possible that more seniors are looking for care options that will allow them to age in the comfort of their own home.

Personal care services are ideal for seniors who wish to remain at home while they age. These services may be customised to fit individual and changing needs.

Read on to learn more about PCS or personal care services to determine if they are the right choice for you or a family member.

What Are Personal Care Services?

When an individual signs up for personal care, they receive visits on a scheduled, regular basis by a highly trained professional Carer or care team. This Carer can provide a high level of care and assist with tasks like ADLs (activities of daily living) as well as some basic medical assistance.

The objective of personal care is to ensure that elderly clients who choose to age at home are well taken care of. Specific care options include:

Assisting with bathing, grooming, personal hygiene, and dressing
Assisting with nutrition, eating, and overall gastronomy
Incontinence care
Assisting with morning wake up and evening tuck-in
Condition-specific, complex care like dementia care

Carers are not medical doctors, which means that they are unable to provide diagnoses or serious medical treatment. However, they are available to assist with medication regimen. They can help clients to remember to take medications and help administer the proper dosage each day.

Who Is Personal Care For?

Now that we’ve taken a look at the standard of care personal care services provide, let’s talk a bit about who is an ideal candidate for personal care. Remember, personal care services are only one of many caregiving solutions. They may not be right for everyone.

Personal Carers may visit daily for several hours or only come a few times a week. The length and number of visits per week can be scheduled to fit each Client’s needs.

Our Carers are equipped to help Clients who are finding it more difficult to take care of daily needs. This includes Clients with limited mobility or cognitive decline (e.g. someone living with dementia).

A Bespoke Home Care Service

As with all our live at home care packages, our personal care services are tailored for each individual. Working around our Clients’ routines, we’re able to support them in personal care, following their schedule and allowing them to live the way they want.

By getting to know each Client as a person and understanding their preferences, we are able to create care plans based around their likes and dislikes, hygiene and beauty products. Most importantly, we work tirelessly to make sure our Clients are comfortable with the care we provide.

To find out more about our high quality, caring services, pricing, and availability, please contact us today. We will be with you as soon as possible to provide answers and assistance.

Local Personal Care Services
It’s important that personal care and any live-in care is provided by a local service by local carers. This ensures continuity of care and helps make the overall experience a much more enjoyable one.

What our Clients say

Very good response to our family requirements. Professional, very understanding and caring. Being able to have a bespoke service was ideal for our situation and it helped the family through a very difficult time. The staff were extremely efficient and managed the care for both parents, maintaining their dignity and well-being. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Care Collection to anyone who requires bespoke care.
