While many people consider care to be support with personal care or medication administration, we also focus on the other tasks many may forget such as running errands, grocery shopping and support with social activities.<\/span><\/p>

\u200b<\/span><\/span>Whether you want someone to just pop in a couple of times a week to take you to your social club or are in need of a little more time, we can plan care which fits around your schedule. With visits from just 30 minutes a week to full-time\u00a0live-in support, you can really pick how much assistance you need.<\/span><\/p>

\u200b<\/span><\/span>Your personal assistant can complete shopping tasks, paperwork, attend appointments with you, offer concierge services and help to access your local community. By following your direction and instructions we will be able to assist in your life, exactly where you need it.<\/span><\/p>

All of our personal assistants are thoroughly vetted and reference checked according to strict regulatory requirements and have all undergone comprehensive training courses to gain the skills needed to fully support you at home.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

During the coronavirus outbreak, we want to assure all of our existing and new customers that we can still support you if you are self-isolating at home. Of particular concern is for our elderly customers and those with underlying health conditions, who are within the \u2018vulnerable\u2019 category suggested by the government. If you need someone to go shopping for you if you can\u2019t leave your home or are worried about going to the shops alone, we can help.<\/span><\/p>

\u200b<\/span><\/span>We can arrange for a carer to collect your groceries and either deliver them to your door or put them in your cupboards and fridge if you struggle to do so by yourself.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Doing a weekly shop is an essential part of many routines but can also be a long and laborious process that many could do without. Your personal assistant can help with picking up a few essential items and can even accompany you to large supermarkets. Not only this, a casual day out browsing your local shops can be an even more enjoyable activity when there\u2019s someone to share this with.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Medical appointments can be stressful and fast-paced, so it can feel like you do not have time to take in all the information. It can be beneficial to have another person there to have a second pair of ears to pick up more details. They can also simply be there to offer companionship as you sit in the waiting room.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Remembering to order your long-term prescription and getting to the pharmacy can sometimes be difficult to fit into your week. The stress of running out of your medication can be alleviated through knowing you have the option of someone else picking it up for you. With your instructions, a personal assistant will be able to travel to your pharmacy and have your medication waiting for you when you get home.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Booking travel, making dinner reservations and providing information about local attractions are all things we can assist with. You may have a special occasion coming up which you need help organizing or want to arrange a weekend away with a loved one.

Support from a personal assistant means that you are able to have help with engaging in your interests while still retaining your independence. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>

They can assist you in a number of hobbies, such as:<\/span><\/p>

  • Going out for lunch or dinner<\/span><\/li>
  • Meeting up with friends<\/span><\/li>
  • Organized groups such as Clubs, Music Groups, Temples, Churches or places of religious worship or crafts<\/span><\/li>
  • Exercise classes<\/span><\/li><\/ul>

    We place importance on helping you in all areas of your life. The time you spend with your loved ones is often held close and we want to help you do this as much as possible. Dedicated staff are available to come with you to social gatherings, either to simply transport you there or to assist you during the engagements as well.<\/span><\/p>

    With careful consideration of the individual strengths of our workers, we will try to pair you with somebody who has the same hobbies and interests. This means that not only do you have someone to help you carry out errands and other odd jobs but will be also able to connect with them.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
