Our care team provides personal care for each of our clients. This includes anything from prompting and encouragement regarding personal hygiene to hands on help, personal washing, dressing and ensuring an individual is well presented.
We can make sure a gentleman is clean shaven, and women can enjoy help with makeup and personal grooming. Personal care also includes help with medication, continence care, eating and drinking, getting up in the morning and going to bed.
Personal care is defined by CQC as: the regulated activity of personal care consisting of the provision of personal care for people who are unable to provide it for themselves because of old age, illness or disability, and which is provided to them in the place where those people are living at the time when the care is provided.
Therefore, we are registered with CQC to provide personal care.
