In taking care of a patient at home, there will always be times where you feel like you're overwhelmed with the amount of stuff that needs to be done. Daily activities, sometimes even tasks that need to be done at night, taking care of a patient is quite an undertaking. And quite frankly, there is only but so much one can do. 


Of course, there is no need to be overwhelmed with the amount of work that needs to be done. Domiciliary Care services also offer an extra pair of hands, which provides assistance to individuals and patients and gives additional support to individuals.  

The Assistance that is provided are as follows. 

Daily Living Assistance. With a Home care service, you and your patient will be receiving Daily Living assistance through a carer that will cater to you or your patient's needs. This ranges from Household tasks, Medication Management, and more. This helps take a giant load off of the main carer. 


Mobility Support. Commonly provided for those who are struggling with their motor skills. A Carer is dedicated to helping their clients move around in their home. From Getting in and out of bed, using a wheelchair, or walking. This helps their patient to be able to regain independence as soon as they can. They are also capable of providing transportation support, assisting to and from appointments, social events, etc. 


Companionship.  Carers are also equipped to provide companionship to the patient as to provide them comfort. A patient's emotional well being makes up well for their own overall health, and companionship has a positive correlation with the patient's condition. Additionally, a carer can also provide very informative feedback as to what the patient might be feeling due to their empathy, giving you an idea as to how best to provide companionship support. 


Having an extra pair of hands can do wonders for both the patient and the carer. It allows the carer to have a much easier time managing the patient with someone with experience to provide assistance at their side.
