Aiding with activities of daily living and adhering to a set schedule are functions of personal care. This service, as defined by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in England, involves delivering personal care to individuals who are incapable of doing so themselves due to advanced age, illness, or permanent disability. By assisting with daily duties within the confines of one’s personal residence, it upholds health, dignity, and well-being. We acknowledge that while certain responsibilities, such as personal hygiene and sanitation, may not be critical, everyone is entitled to a sense of dignity and should not be required to make concessions to feel comfortable being themselves, regardless of the circumstances.
Aside from meals, dressing, and bathing, Kent Care Consultants offers round-the-clock personal care assistance. Electric shaving, hair washing, and drying are all aspects of hygiene that we can perform. Additionally, we can assist with the bedtime preparations of care recipients.
We recognise the sensitivity surrounding the topic of personal care. When it comes to assisting service users with their personal care, our care professionals are not only compassionate but also well-versed in maintaining boundaries, dignity, and respect. The utmost degree of independence is encouraged among our service recipients.
The following are examples of personal care, which are not exhaustive:
