What is Home Care?
Exploring the Benefits of Home Care with Manaaki Healthcare
As we age and require some support, the misconception that the only option is moving into a care home couldn't be further from the truth.
Home Care is an excellent alternative, offering the comfort of familiar surroundings while receiving top-notch care. At Manaaki Healthcare, we are committed to providing exceptional home care services that cater to your unique needs and preferences.
What Is Home Care?
Home Care or domiciliary care is a service provided by a care agency that offers fully trained and vetted carers to support individuals in the comfort of their own homes. The beauty of Home Care is its flexibility – visits can be as short as 30 minutes, and the care provided is entirely tailored to your specific requirements.
How Does It Work?
At Manaaki Healthcare, we put you in control of your care. During our initial meeting, we will sit down with you to understand your preferences and expectations. We'll document precisely what you would like and how you prefer things to be done. Your input guides our care, ensuring it aligns perfectly with your needs.
Our Range of Support
Our carers are highly trained and dedicated to making your life easier. We can assist with a wide range of services, including personal care, medication administration, meal preparation, and even companionship. Whatever your needs, we are here to provide the support you require.
Our Carers
All of our carers are directly employed by us, and they undergo rigorous vetting (Enhanced DBS Check) and training. We operate in small teams, fostering a close relationship between our carers and those they support. Our senior staff are available from 7 am to 10 pm, seven days a week, ensuring that you always have access to support when needed.
Our Commitment to You
At Manaaki Healthcare, we take pride in offering personalized care that focuses on meeting your specific needs rather than simply completing a checklist of tasks.
Our approach to care has earned us a "Good" rating in every category by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), comprising Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well Led.
We work with you to establish pre-agreed visit times and durations that suit your routine, ensuring maximum convenience. You will have a dedicated team of carers who get to know you well, creating a relaxed and personal environment for care delivery.
All our carers are employed by us, have undergone DBS checks, received comprehensive training, and are equipped with the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE).
Our commitment to you includes:
1. Pre-agreed visit times and durations tailored to your needs.
2. A dedicated team of carers to build familiarity, enabling us to identify changing needs early.
3. Supportive staff available whenever you need assistance.
4. Transparent pricing – what you see is what you pay.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Manaaki Healthcare family.
Our mission is simple: "We are more than a care company, we are a CARING company."
