Finding The Best Carers For Your Loved One

Helping Them to Live a Full, Independent Life 

Needing home care doesn’t mean a person has no quality of life left – in fact, good care can really enrich it. 

It’s never easy accepting that a loved one needs professional care – but choosing the right care for them will allow them to live a full, independent life in the comfort of their own home for much longer. Fambridge Care are leading providers of home based care, and are a firm favourite with a range of clients. 

Benefits of staying at home 

There are many benefits of a person staying in their own home. They feel much more comfortable, helping to preserve their mental welling. Someone moving into residential care can also put up barriers between them and their friends and family. Of course, there may come a time when residential care is the best option for your loved one, but visiting and live in carers aim to help a person live as independently as possible in their own home for as long as they can. 

Identify their needs

When you are arranging care for your loved one, you need to sit down and think about their needs. Do they have an ongoing health condition? Are they suffering from a disease such as dementia or Alzheimer’s? Have they recently undergone an operation? Do they need to take daily medication? All of these are things that you will need to make sure a care company has experience dealing with, to ensure the best possible care for your loved one. 

Find a great care provider 

You need to find a care company with a great reputation. Fambridge Care are a trusted provider of home care services in Chelmsford and the surrounding areas, and have experience dealing with a wide range of individuals with different health concerns. Whether you are looking for a short term carer (while you are on holiday or after your loved one has come out of hospital), or need it on a long term basis, you will be able to find what you are looking for. 

How much care do they need?

Once you have chosen who will be looking after your loved one, you need to think about the level of care they will need. Don’t worry if you’re not sure – your care provider will be on hand to help you decide. Some people just need someone to pop in a couple of times a day, while others may need more visits. For some, live in care is the best option for them, giving them the care that they need around the clock. 

Think about technology
