Rehabilitation Care at Home

Illness and injury can have the sorts of impact on the body and mind that remain long after the physical symptoms have healed and disappeared. They can leave you feeling a loss of confidence, independence, feelings of anxiety or of being alone.

You may feel no one understands or find it difficult to talk about the emotional impact of what you have been through. This is where rehabilitation and reablement care can help.

Rehabilitation or reablement care is designed around helping you to make the transition from hospital or convalescence to home. Things may feel strange and unfamiliar at first, even in a familiar environment, but our carers who are specially trained to provide care, help and support at times like these, will be there to walk through the transition with you.

Care begins with understanding what regaining normalcy in life means to you. There may be permanent or temporary changes that need to be considered, and you may need a patient ear as you talk through what that means to you. Whatever you transition needs are, we will be right on hand to help ensure you get the care package that works in line with it.

Rehabilitation care can include:

  • Help to restore daily routines and activities, like getting up and dressed in the mornings and turning in at night.
  • Moving around the house and regaining your mobility.
  • Readjusting to being at home alone and having someone there to talk to.
  • Regaining your independence in your home and social life, so things like making a shopping list, doing the shopping and packing it away; cooking for yourself again, getting out of the house and meeting up with friends.

Rehabilitation or reablement care is bespoke and tailored to your personal needs. It is designed to fit around you as an individual and so at its centre is what works to help restore your confidence, independence and spark for life.
