Personal Care in Watford

Our personal care services are available to anyone who needs assistance with daily living. This includes people recovering from surgery, those living with disabilities and cognitive impairment or those seeking condition-based care.

Social care is often underfunded and in high demand; in most cases, there will be a long waiting list if provision is available in your area. Because these services are stretched, in our experience, people have stated that it can result in missed visits and a lack of equipment in some instances.

A home care company, like Home Instead Watford, is privately funded by the client (and local authorities if you meet eligibility), meaning access to a broader range of care services is often much quicker. As our resources are less finite, we can also include initiatives like our free wellness checks and fall prevention assessments.

We can also give you more time. No dash in and dash out, meaning there is room for essential aspects of wellness, like companionship.

Physical help given to a person and prompting of an individual to carry out daily living tasks themselves.

Promoting good personal hygiene helps to prevent illness and the spread of infection. It also helps maintain self-confidence and dignity.

A familiar care professional matched with you provides personalised care and support to you in your own home in the way you want it to be provided.

We understand that it can be difficult accepting personal care and that is why you will be introduced to your Care Professionals and they will spend time getting to know you before assisting you with your personal care.

At Home Instead we ensure that each client has a small team of Care Professionals in place to provide you with care so you can be confident that you will have continuity from the same Care Professionals.

At Home Instead, we have a robust approach to ensuring that all Care Professionals have regular observations of practice that we call Support Visits, and assessments of competency for key activities such as handling medication or providing catheter care.
