Motor neuron diseases
Our competent team of carers has helped to support over 50 customers living with a learning disability. Our staff receives specific training to understand the different conditions, how to communicate effectively and how to engage with them. We work closely with the learning disability teams within Westminster, Hammersmith & Fulham, and Kensington & Chelsea NHS trusts
01. Spinal and brain injuries
We understand the sensitivities and complexity of supporting people with spinal or acquired brain injuries. Our team of carers are given the required training to manage all care needs, however, with this type of care we provide additional support and training for staff, including accredited training courses through Headway, the brain injury association. We have helped support over 20 people with spinal or brain injuries
02. Learning disabilities
We have a dedicated team of carers, overseen by our Learning Disability Coordinator, to manage over 25 customers living with a learning disability. Our staff receives specific training to understand the different conditions, how to communicate effectively and how to engage with them. We work closely with the learning disability teams within Westminster, Hammersmith & Fulham, and Kensington & Chelsea NHS trusts.
03. Laboratory and X-ray imaging
Physical/occupational therapy helps patients in relearning how to perform daily duties or improve their speech after a severe illness or injury.
04. End-of-life/ palliative care
All staff undergoes specific training in end-of-life/ palliative care during induction, this is refreshed annually. Central to the training is the heightened sensitivity required at such an important stage in someone’s life. We work with MacMillan nurses to deliver sensitive and person-centred care to ensure people maintain their dignity in the final stages of their life
05. Home from hospital/ respite care
We work with the hospital discharge teams at all the main hospitals in London to safely manage discharge from the hospital. We can arrange hospital visits before discharge to understand the needs and the care requirements, we also liaise with nurses and Physiotherapists to ensure that rehabilitation continues seamlessly at home.
We also offer short-term respite care for family carers if they need some time out, whether that be for an hour or two each week or round-the-clock care for several weeks. We can set up packages of care very quickly in times of crisis.
