Keeping the Family Up-to-Date

We use an app to update family members on all information from our home care visit, this includes;

  • How the visit went
  • What your loved one did
  • How they felt
  • What they ate
  • If they drank enough
  • and any other information we feel is important to share.

Family members can log in and instantly see how the visit went using a safe and secure portal that is only visible to the direct family upon request.

Using this portal has been a fantastic way of reassuring family members that their loved one is safe and their health and wellbeing is being monitored and looked after while they remain in their own home.

Their care professionals Will be a True Companion

Our care professionals are wonderful, kind-hearted people who go above and beyond to provide the best quality of care. They help keep our client’s safe, protected and smiling at all times.

Let Technology Be Your Friend

Now is the time to embrace technology. There are amazing and unique gadgets available that are simple to use and can help reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation associated with independent living.

For example, easy-to-use radios that are preprogrammed to your favourite music channels and handheld devices with one or two touches of your finger can connect you to your family or favourite quizzes and games.
