Help at Home
Help with everyday needs
If you think you need help with your everyday needs to help you to live independently, get in touch with the First Contact Team for an assessment:
The team will complete a referral form on your behalf and then the Community Care Assessment Team will visit you to assess your needs and recommend the best solution.
A home carer can assist with a wide variety of daily living tasks, including personal care and household tasks such as:
- dressing
- washing
- getting to the toilet
- preparing meals
- supervising medications
- doing laundry
- shopping
