What Does Our 24-Hour Support Entail

Our support workers create consistent and tailored routines tailored to people’s needs and preferences. Through a proactive and humanised approach, the work as a team enables people to live their best life. The 24-hour support ensures uninterrupted sleep for the people we serve and their family members.

While we personalise each approach to the individual, our 24-hour care entails the following:

Through dedicated support staff, we can provide you with unparalleled care. The service goes beyond fulfilling physical and basic needs as we strive to create a nurturing and supportive environment that promotes a sense of belonging and happiness for your loved one.

Personal Care

Personal home care offers support with daily activities such as dressing, bathing, toileting, housekeeping and preparing/delivering meals. In both 24-hour home care and live-in care, personal care takes centre stage, ensuring individuals receive comprehensive support for their daily needs. With a dedicated team of caregivers, personal care extends beyond essential assistance, encompassing a holistic approach to enhance overall well-being.

From morning routines to nighttime rituals, caregivers prioritise individual preferences and maintain a respectful and compassionate approach, fostering a sense of dignity and independence. Additionally, caregivers pay close attention to medication management, mobility support, and nutrition, promoting healthy habits and a balanced lifestyle.

Booking and Managing Health Appointments

Booking and managing health appointments is essential for caregivers in 24-hour home care, ensuring the well-being and proper medical attention of the people they serve. With their commitment to providing top-quality care, caregivers navigate the complex healthcare system, scheduling doctor visits, specialists, and therapy sessions while considering specific needs and preferences. They diligently organise and coordinate appointments, maintain accurate records, and communicate effectively with healthcare providers, ensuring seamless transitions between different healthcare professionals. By efficiently managing health appointments, caregivers play a vital role in maintaining the health and overall quality of life of the people under their care in the comfort of their own homes.

Support to Promote Independence

Caregivers strive to understand each person’s unique needs and preferences, tailoring their support accordingly. By assisting with activities of daily living, such as dressing, bathing, and meal preparation, caregivers aim to strike a delicate balance between facilitating independence and offering necessary aid. Through compassionate guidance, encouragement, and the provision of adaptive strategies or assistive technology, caregivers enable individuals, including seniors, to maintain control over their lives, promoting a sense of empowerment, dignity, and improved quality of life.

Implementing PBS

By implementing a person-centred care approach, our support workers enhance the quality of life and safety of the people we support through integrating Positive Behaviour Support (PBS). Every caregiver must comprehensively understand each individual’s unique preferences and strengths to foster a nurturing environment that promotes autonomy and emotional well-being. They use proactive strategies reactive strategies, and active support, encouraging community living and respecting people’s Human Rights. Our Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) team effectively identifies and addresses particular behaviour, formulates a humanised understanding and creates a plan fitting the needs and preferences of the individual. After implementing the plan, our support workers do regular check-ups on the people we serve to achieve positive outcomes.

Teaching Life Skills

Teaching life skills through 24-hour home care is an invaluable opportunity for caregivers to empower individuals with the necessary tools to lead fulfilling and independent lives. In this nurturing environment, caregivers impart essential skills like cooking, personal hygiene, time management, and communication. By fostering a supportive and personalised approach, caregivers not only ensure the basic needs of their charges are met but also promote self-confidence, resilience, and adaptability. Through dedication and expertise, our support workers in 24-hour home care and live-in care create a safe and inclusive space where individuals can develop essential life skills, fostering a sense of autonomy and enhancing their overall quality of life, forming the best choice of home care and maintaining home health.

Waking Night Emergency

The concept of a waking night emergency service stands as a crucial lifeline during the silent hours. When the night comes, and the world sleeps, a dedicated team of compassionate caregivers remains vigilant, ready to respond to urgent situations.

With unwavering dedication, a caregiver ensures the safety and well-being of those entrusted to their provided care, providing immediate assistance and comfort when unexpected emergencies arise.

We have dedicated waking night support workers ready to assist you throughout the night, providing support whenever needed. Waking night emergency care is suitable for people of all ages, including seniors. Their responsibilities encompass a wide range of tasks tailored to meet your needs or those of your loved one. Whether helping adjust your loved one’s position during the night or ensuring you take medication regularly, the waking night caregiver is here to address any unexpected challenges.

Managing Behaviours that Challenge

Managing behaviours that challenge requires a comprehensive and humanised approach to ensure the well-being and safety of both the individual receiving care and the support workers. It involves understanding the underlying causes of challenging behaviours, such as dementia or mental health issues, and implementing personalised strategies to address them. Effective communication, active listening, and building trust are crucial in fostering a positive therapeutic relationship. Creating a structured environment, providing meaningful activities, and offering appropriate levels of stimulation can help reduce agitation and promote engagement. Collaboration with a multidisciplinary team, including healthcare professionals and family members, is vital for developing individualised care plans and implementing consistent approaches. Additionally, ongoing training in PBS and self-care for caregivers are essential to sustain a nurturing and respectful environment that supports the individuals’ unique needs.
