Home Care Bury provides live-in care to provide twenty-four-hour care and support to those who prefer to live in their own homes but require constant help to ensure they are safe, comfortable and independent. To some families, the idea of a loved one going to a residential care may seem overwhelming or even heart breaking, more so when the individual who is supposed to go there is closely attached to home, familiar environment and daily routine. Live-in care offers an alternative that is reassuring to people, one that enables them to remain in the place they feel safest and yet experience the degree of support that they are not yet in need of.
In live-in care, a special caregiver relocates to the house and becomes a reassuring and reliable figure. It is one of the largest strengths of the service. Instead of being taken care of by various staff members on a daily basis, the person develops a substantial bond with a single caregiver who gets to know his or her personality, likes, health requirements, and day-to-day patterns. Gradually, this familiarity leads to a feeling of comfort and confidence, which eliminate anxiety and make the individual feel that he or she is in charge of their life.
Any live-in care strategy starts with a comprehensive evaluation, during which we investigate the individual habits, physical capabilities, health needs, emotional needs, and desires. Others are goal-oriented and like to be organized and predictable, whereas others are relaxed and like to work in a loose manner. We would always strive to have a good fit between the individual and the caregiver based on their personality, style of communication, and experience. This is a considerate act of matching which is used to form a comfortable and peaceful environment at home.
Live-in caregivers provide assistance in all the necessary daily activities. This may involve assistance in washing, dressing, toileting, grooming and moving safely around the house. They also cook, do the household chores, promote fluid intake, coordinate medications, do laundry, and maintain living environments tidy and orderly. A live-in carer is always near the person whether a person needs assistance in getting out of bed in the morning, keeping a check on the person during the night, or aid in complicated care tasks during the day.
Live-in care may be of great use to people with memory-related issues such as dementia or Alzheimer. The presence of a regular caregiver can help minimize the level of confusion, provide a sense of order and establish a peaceful environment. The caregiver gets to know what situations are likely to trigger distress and how to lead the individual through the situations in a soft manner. Even the most basic of tasks, like the encouragement of accustomed habits, soothing communication, or silent companionship, can be incredibly effective in terms of wellbeing.
Another significant factor of live in care is security. The presence of a person at night gives one peace of mind not only to the individual but also to his family. The caregiver makes sure that the person is never left alone or unprotected whether to provide comfort, assist someone to the bathroom, or take care of the person when the unexpected comes.
Long-term care may be provided through live-in care, post-surgery or illness recovery, and short-term respite care when relatives become overloaded. No matter how long it is, we will achieve the same, namely, to save face, encourage independence where feasible, and otherwise offer consistent emotional and physical aid.
Home Care Bury is of the opinion that home is usually the most suitable place to be when one is more dependent. Having the appropriate care provider around them, they will be able to feel at home, stick to their routine, and feel safe and comfortable, which is something that will never be available in other places. Our live-in care service is developed on the principles of kindness, patience, and real devotion to people - to enable people to live further on their own conditions, with confidence and peace of mind.
