Every person is unique in their history, values, needs and desires. That’s why, when it comes to providing and receiving care, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Our person-centred approach to home care takes into account your clinical and emotional needs to ensure you feel supported in a way that best works for you.
Read on to learn more about home care in Nottingham and our person-centred approach to providing care.
Understanding home care
Home care is practical assistance, emotional support and consistent companionship that’s provided within the familiarity of your home. We come to you so that you can enjoy the comforts of home for as long as possible. The goal of home care is to empower you and support your independence, enabling you to live safely at home, even as your needs change.
A person-centred approach to care
Our person-centred approach to care makes you the focus of everything we do. This means we respect and honour your preferences, needs and values when devising your care plan. We also respect your autonomy and empower you to retain your independence and feel in control of your life. You will always be treated with respect and dignity.
Care that’s tailored to you
Everyone’s needs and desires are different. Guided by your values and wishes, we provide care that’s uniquely tailored to you. Our care caters to needs associated with becoming frail, elderly or developing complex needs. You can rest assured that we are here for you no matter who you are, what your situation is or what your care history may be. There are several ways we support your individual care needs:
- A personalised care plan – Before we begin providing care, we’ll create a personalised care plan that we design to best help you thrive. Our nurse-led team does this by assessing your clinical needs, undertaking a risk assessment and speaking with you, your family and any relevant healthcare professionals for input.
- Flexibility – We understand that you already have an established way of life and routine. Our care is flexible so we can respect this as much as possible. Whether you need us in the morning, at night, for a few hours every day or 24/7, we’re there. Just say the word.
- Evolving around your needs – Your needs or preferences may change over time and that’s okay. We’ll adapt accordingly. We’ll also continuously monitor and evaluate outcomes to ensure you are getting what you need. Remember, your needs and wishes come first.
Care that promotes independence
Our person-centred approach to care is designed to empower you and support your independence, helping you stay in control of your life as much as possible. Our compassionate team is here for you as often or as much as you need us. By promoting independence at home, we hope to help you live well within the comfort of your home without creating a dependency. No matter what, you remain in control.
