Helping Hands Lets You Enjoy Home

Here at Safehands Live-in Care, we have holistically embraced the saying, ‘East or west, home is best.’ We understand that leaving home is bidding goodbye all the things that you stand for. Home to you is much more than the physical structure. It is where your heart is. It is where you are accustomed to living and of course, you have lived there for many years. It is your shrine and your haven. You have created a bond with not only your space but with your neighbours.
Home is where you hold all the precious memories and all things that brighten your world. That is why here at Safehands Live-in Care, we are so determined not to that away from you. With 24 years of experience, Safehands believes that Live-in care is not a far-fetched dream. It can be done with excellence, dignity and respect that it deserves. Thousands of clients have entrusted us and we believe that home care is possible. No matter your need and location, you can rely on us to turn impossibilities into possibilities.
Safehands Live-in Care is the better option

Our Live-in option gives you the freedom, serenity and privacy that cannot be found in the residential care homes. There is nothing that can match the familiar and serene environment that can only be found at home. We understand that a strange environment can come with both physical and emotional strain. At Safehands Live-in Care, we ensure that you receive full medical attention alongside other nursing-led options. Our team of experts collaborates with your current medical team and family in order to ensure that we give you excellent services without interrupting with you home structure.

The Value of Companionship Care

Many elderly people rely on care visits in order to have their basic needs met, such as food, comfort, and hygiene. While the government sometimes provides occasional care visitors to perform these tasks, they have neglected to provide for the basic necessity of human contact and companionship. The average care visit is less than 15 minutes, and this leaves little time for conversation or company. While more and more of our community are living longer, healthier lives, many find that they suffer from loneliness or isolation, perhaps after losing a spouse or close friend.

A live in carer service not only ensures that an elderly person can have their needs met immediately rather than waiting in discomfort or distress for a visitor, but also that they have someone to talk to, share memories with, or just to feel familiar.

If you know of an elderly neighbor or relative that might benefit from some more contact and companionship, consider a live in carer. These are particularly useful for people with mobility issues or health problems, or for those who simply need some company. Loneliness can lead to mental health issues, and is proven to be a life shortening issue.

Winter can be particularly punishing for older people who often find themselves much more isolated and unable to get out. Chief of charity Age UK Ms Mitchell warns that “The winter can cause misery, avoidable illness and even death for too many older people.” In fact, lonely elderly people are 45% more likely to die than those who felt they were “meaningfully connected with others”.

A personal, live-in carer can reduce both stress and seclusion, but also grant elderly people more independence and dignity. Whether you yourself are considering hiring a carer or you are interested in a carer for a loved one, be sure to check company credentials to assure that the companion in question is safe and qualified.

Get in touch with Safe Hands today if you are interested in a qualified and compassionate live-in carer.
