Domiciliary Care in Dover by Caremark
Domiciliary care (or in-home care or visiting care) is support in your home with everyday tasks. The aim of our domiciliary care services in Dover is to keep you living as independently as possible in your home for as long as you wish.
Your Home: Your Care
Your home is important to you. Your home is a part of you, and you are a part of it. Home is the place where you feel safe, comfortable and content. And, very importantly, your home contains precious memories. Your memories are important. In many ways you are your memories. As Psychology Today put it:
“Memories make us who we are. They create our worldview in ways we hardly realize. Like a character made of Legos, we’re built of blocks of memory that all fit together to form our consciousness.”
It is no surprise, then, that home care is so popular. Whatever support you need – personal care, domestic help, shopping, medication support -home care support can fit the bill.
Independence and Personalised Domiciliary Care in Dover
Your home is your home: you care is your care. Your care is as personal as your home.
Our domiciliary care services in Dover help you live safely and independently in your home. Your independence – your autonomy – is fundamentally important. At a very basic level, none of us like to feel that we lack the freedom to do what we want to do.
Of course, you’re never entirely free to do what you want, but in your home your freedom is pretty extensive. Your home has always been your space, and with that space comes the freedom to make choices about such things as what time to get up, and what to eat, and when to eat, and what to wear. These may seem trivial things.
But imagine not having the freedom to choose them.
Independence and Dignity
The evidence is overwhelming that human dignity is enhanced by independence. As Help Age International explain:
“Being able to make your own decisions and go about your daily life according to your own value is central to your dignity. Everyone has the right to this autonomy and independence.”
Human dignity is also enhanced by our social bonds, our interconnectedness, our interdependence as much as our independence.
We know that there are likely to be many other people -friends, family, other health professionals and your community more generally- involved in your care. For this reason, we place great importance on working interdependently with you and everyone you want involved in your life.
Why choose our domiciliary care services in Dover? Because nothing compares to home, nothing compares to Caremark.
FAQs
Home care refers to receiving care and support services in the comfort of your own home. Unlike other care options, such as residential care, home care allows individuals to remain in familiar surroundings while receiving personalised care tailored to their specific needs.
To begin with, we conduct a comprehensive assessment of your needs. This involves understanding your personal preferences, daily routine, and any specific health requirements. Based on this assessment, we devise a customised care plan. Once the plan is agreed upon, we then pair you with a suitable care assistant.
Yes, absolutely. Caremark’s home care is designed to provide support not just to individuals, but also to families. Our care team can work in conjunction with family members to ensure you receive the best possible care.
