What Does Personal Care in Domiciliary Care Mean?
When choosing support for yourself or a loved one, it’s important to understand what personal care actually involves. At Avelo Care, we provide personal care as part of our domiciliary care services across Thanet and surrounding areas, helping people live comfortably and independently in their own homes.
What Is Personal Care?
Personal care refers to everyday tasks that support a person’s dignity, comfort, and wellbeing. This can include help with:
- Washing, bathing, or showering
- Dressing and undressing
- Hair care, shaving, and grooming
- Toileting and continence care
- Support with eating and drinking
- Prompting or assistance with medication
Our trained carers deliver this support with compassion and respect, ensuring that every individual’s preferences and routines are honoured.
Why Choose Personal Care at Home?
Many people prefer to stay in the familiar surroundings of their own home rather than moving into residential care. Personal care at home offers:
- Independence – stay in control of your daily life
- Comfort – remain in the place you know best
- Flexibility – tailored visits from a few hours a week to full-time live-in care
- Peace of mind – reassurance for families that their loved one is safe and cared for
Who Can Benefit from Personal Care?
Personal care is not just for the elderly. It can support:
- Older adults needing daily assistance
- People recovering after illness or surgery
- Individuals with disabilities or long-term conditions
- Anyone who needs extra help with daily living tasks
