Home Care
Our core business is providing support to people in order for them to continue to live in their own homes. This support ranges from a comprehensive care package which could mean several calls a day to more minimal support which could be once or twice per week.
We can help with tasks such as washing, dressing, bathing / showering, help in and out of bed, meal preparation, medication etc. and other domestic duties such as shopping, laundry and cleaning.
06 Care can also assist with more complex care needs, such as specialist aspects of care i.e. spinal injury, brain injury, catheter/stoma care, dementia etc.
As part of your individual assessment your care needs and those of your family/carer will be discussed and included in your care plan.
Your services will be provided by a small team of care assistants who you will get to know in order to feel comfortable, relaxed and secure when you invite them in to your home.
When your service starts with 06 Care Limited, you will be asked to keep a home care record book in your home. Inside the book will be:
- Information
- Useful telephone numbers
- Customer information
- Communication sheets for staff, customer, family, carer, other professionals etc.
- Care/support plan
- Risk assessments
There may also be:
- Home care task notes
- Manual handling plan
- Medication authorisation
- Medication profile and record
- Financial transaction sheet
Your home care record book will help you to understand the care that is being provided, and it will assist our staff in providing continuity of care. When/if your service finishes we will remove all the information from your home and store it securely at our main office.
