A Familiar Face

Wherever possible, we keep the same caregiver supporting you, so genuine relationships can grow and you know who's coming through the door.

When personal care support might help

  • Showering, dressing or grooming is becoming more difficult to manage safely.
  • Your loved one has become less steady on their feet or is at risk of falls.
  • Getting in and out of bed, chairs or the shower is becoming more difficult.
  • Your loved one is more comfortable accepting personal care from someone outside the family.
  • You're supporting a loved one and would benefit from regular time to rest and recharge.

What personal care can look like

Support that fits your day

John enjoys living in his own home, but arthritis and reduced mobility have made everyday routines more difficult. Standing for long periods is tiring, and he no longer feels confident showering or managing some daily tasks on his own.

In the morning, his caregiver helps John shower, get dressed and ready for the day before preparing breakfast and sharing a cup of tea together. Once breakfast is finished, his caregiver makes the bed, puts on a load of washing, tidies the kitchen and prepares a simple lunch so it's ready for later. Before leaving, they check John has everything he needs within easy reach and, if he's feeling up to it, spend a little time outside in the garden or take a short walk to keep him active.

Later that afternoon, his caregiver returns to prepare dinner while John keeps them company at the kitchen table. They enjoy the meal together, chat about the day and tidy the kitchen afterwards. After dinner, John's caregiver gently reminds him to take his medication, helps him with his bedtime routine and settles him comfortably into bed, making sure his phone, glasses, water and anything else he might need overnight are close by.

Having support at the beginning and end of the day means John can continue living comfortably and confidently in the home he loves, knowing help is there when he needs it most.

Every person's routine is different. Some people need a little help each morning, others have support morning and evening, while some require more frequent care throughout the day. Whatever that looks like, we tailor our support to fit each person's needs, preferences and daily routine.

I'm glad I chose Haven Care to care for my Dad. The process to get started was very easy and the team explained in great detail what we could expect. They listened to what our concerns were, and gave us suggestions to prevent any mishaps at home. The staff that are assigned to us are very caring and thorough. Always arriving on time, cheerful, and occasionally working overtime to complete the final task. Haven Care provides an outstanding service. I would definitely recommend them. You won't be disappointed.
